## Visit Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe

Activities

#### The delicately embellished cathedral crowning Ponce’s Plaza Las Delicias is a cherished landmark in the city and has a history stretching back over 300 years.

Admire the updated neoclassical façade of the Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe (Catedral de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe) from its prominent position overlooking Ponce’s historic central square. Since its establishment in 1670, fire and earthquakes have repeatedly razed Ponce’s main Catholic landmark. Each time the building was nearly destroyed, it was rebuilt and remodeled until it reached the magnificence you see today.

Gaze up at the cathedral’s monumental façade from the Plaza Las Delicias. See if you can trace the building’s architectural heritage in its Gothic foundations, colonial flourishes and neoclassical masonry. The enormous 3,540-square-yard (2,960-square-metre) building is shaped in a cruciform design and painted pale blue and grey. Two square bell towers flank the central portal, which is adorned with Doric columns and a central crucifix.

Enter the cathedral to experience its bright and airy interiors. The sky-blue ceiling and yellow walls give the nave a distinctive Latin American touch. Look up at the pretty cross-vaulted ceiling and check out the series of stained-glass windows that illuminate the interior. The large dome rises above the intersection of the transept and the nave. On the westernmost bay, you’ll find the vestibule, the choir loft and a large pipe organ. Installed in 1934, this pipe organ is regularly played for services and events. Walk up to the alabaster altar, which was made in the neoclassical style in Spain. You’ll find the original Gothic altar relocated to the southern chapel.

The Cathedral of Our Lady of Guadalupe is located in the heart of central Ponce. It is open daily until noon and has longer opening hours on weekends. Plan to visit outside the regular church service times if you wish to explore the cathedral. Visit the cathedral on 12 December to experience the Las Mañanitas festival, which is named after the Mexican birthday song. The festival involves a pre-dawn procession followed by Holy Mass in celebration of the Virgin of Guadalupe, the city’s patron saint. The cathedral is free to visit.

8.8/10 Excellent! (182 reviews)

Property was beautiful and clean , some of the staff had attitude, I fell in there property and sprained my ankle and there was a worker in the utility room and saw me fall and he didn’t even ask to help me get up or if I needed medical attention, I went to the office and told them and they offered me ice , they didn’t even ask if I’m okay or again if I need it medical attention, and they gave me the wrong room I was supposed to get a city view and all I got was a parking lot view , and when I told them they told me it was my problem , my flight was leaving pretty late and I told them to accommodate me because they gave me the wrong room they made me pay for an extra night when I asked them for late check out …. Aisha she was one of the supervisors which was pretty nice to me and tried to accommodate me she tried calling the big office but they didn’t want to accommodate me for a late check out ….
