It holds the rank of Minor Basilica, its construction dates from the 18th century. Built in the old Supay Kancha or ´´cerco del diablo´´, the work was concluded on May 25, 1757, worked in stone by the Peruvian builder Simón de Asto whose name is on the main portal, who introduced ´´ smuggling'´ on the facade the native flowers of pantyhose that heal the penalties.



City center.



The front of the interior of the Cathedral is made of silver and on the side walls you can see paintings from different schools. (Cusqueña, Italian). Its construction is due to the help of rich miners in the area, such as Miguel Jacinto and Miguel Antonio San Román, as well as Doña María Ayala. The atrium has a staircase of ten steps that descend to the Plaza de Armas. In 1930 a fire destroyed the Cathedral and priceless carvings and figures were lost.
