ST. PETER'S CATHEDRAL

ST. PETER'S CATHEDRAL TUGUEGARAO CITY

St. Peter Cathedral, located in Tuguegarao City, is the biggest Spanish church in Cagayan Valley and is the seat of the Archdiocese of Tuguegarao. The structure is considered one of the most beautiful works of art in the Philippines as its picture appears at a basilica in Rome.

History

Father Antonio Lobato, O.P. began the cathedral's construction on 17 June 1761 and finished in 1767. It was restored by Msgr. Bishop Constance Jurgens but was destroyed in 1945 during the American bombing in World War II.
