The Primatial Cathedral of Bogotá is a neoclassical temple dedicated to the Immaculate Conception, located in Bolívar Square in the historic district of La Candelaria. Designed by the Capuchin architect Fray Domingo de Petrés, it was built between 1807 and 1823 on the same site as three previous churches that served as cathedrals for the city. Its imposing Latin cross architecture, with five naves and sixteen chapels, houses the 17th-century main altarpiece, marble altars, and is the seat of the Archdiocese of Bogotá. The remains of its founder, Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada, and Antonio Nariño rest within its walls, solidifying its status as a national monument since 1975 and making it one of the most emblematic Catholic churches in Latin America.
