Antigua Guatemala Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of San José, is a historic Roman Catholic church located in the heart of Antigua Guatemala. Originally built in the 16th century, the cathedral has endured multiple reconstructions due to the numerous earthquakes that have struck the region over the centuries. The current structure, with its impressive baroque facade, dates back to the late 17th century. Despite the damage inflicted by earthquakes, the ruins of the cathedral remain a significant and evocative site, offering a glimpse into the grandeur of its past.
