In 1861, the church was elevated to the status of cathedral of the newly created diocese of Puno. In 1930, a fire destroyed important parts of the wooden interior, such as the main altar. In 1965, Pope Paul VI gave the cathedral the additional title of minor basilica. In 1972, it was declared a national cultural asset of Peru.

Puno's main Catholic church, the most striking element of the central Plaza de Armas with its two bell towers and beautiful stone facade.
It is beautifully decorated, the interior is relatively simple. After admiring the carved stone figures outside, head inside to enjoy the serene atmosphere under the vaulted ceilings and marvel at the large marble altar.

Although the official name of Puno Cathedral is the Cathedral Basilica of San Carlos Borromeo, very few people use the full name of this landmark today. The cathedral was built in 1757 and is part of the Andean Baroque school of architecture, a style commonly adopted in the mountainous regions of South America.

After the fire in 1930, Puno Cathedral was completely rebuilt and received the designation of Historical Cultural Heritage of the Nation of Peru in 1972. The remains of Julio Gonzáles Ruiz, a former bishop of the Diocese of Puno, are buried in the cathedral.
There appears to be a bullet stuck in this painting, which dates back to a conflict over ownership of the mines of San Luis de Alba in the 18th century, which is why it is known as 'The Lord of the Bullet'.
