Cajamarca: Catedral de Santa Catalina

            The Catedral de Santa Catalina was originally planned as a parish church for the Spaniards in 1665, but in 1682 it was elevated to the rank of cathedral. Work was not completed until 1762. The two bell towers were not completed to avoid higher taxation as the colonial authorities levied a lower tax on buildings that were not completed. The cathedral features a stunning Baroque façade carved out of volcanic rock that contains elements of native iconography.
