Gamu Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Gamu, Philippines
The Cathedral of Saint Michael the Archangel features modern construction methods incorporating bricks, sand, stone, gravel, cement, steel, and concrete elements.
The episcopal seat transferred from Saint Ferdinand Parish Church to this new cathedral in 2003, marking a significant change for the Diocese of Ilagan.
Pope Francis declared in 2013 that the cathedral should honor Saint Michael the Archangel while maintaining Saint Ferdinand of Castile as patron of the diocese.
The cathedral stands as the main religious center in Gamu, located approximately 7 kilometers from Ilagan, the provincial capital of Isabela.
A fire in April 2024 caused substantial interior damage to the historic church structure, which contained elements dating back over three centuries.
