Album Info:
(DSC04906a) The first Vigan Cathedral was ordered and built in 1574 by Spanish conquistador, Juan de Salcedo. Another version of the church was again constructed in 1641 but was unfortunately destroyed by an earthquake. A reconstructed church was gutted with fire in 1739. The current church was constructed in 1790 and was finished in 1800. The church itself became a cathedral when the seat of the Diocese of Nueva Segovia was transferred from Cagayan to Vigan.
