Fodor's Expert Review La Santísima Trinidad

Trinidad

Although the city's cathedral was consecrated in 1892, the building took the better part of the 19th century to complete (it was built to replace the 17th-century church that was destroyed by a hurricane). Don't let the rather bleak exterior (or limited hours) deter you from stepping inside; its interesting interior is replete with a dozen hardwood altars that date from the early 20th century and various colonial icons.

Local people usually refer to the cathedral as the Parroquial Mayor (major parish).
