Vigan Cathedral (Metropolitan Cathedral of the Conversion of St. Paul the Apostle)

Vigan Cathedral, formally the Metropolitan Cathedral of the Conversion of St. Paul the Apostle, is a Roman Catholic cathedral in central Vigan City, Ilocos Sur, Philippines, facing Plaza Burgos. Built in Earthquake Baroque style, the current structure was constructed between 1790 and 1800 after earlier churches were damaged by earthquakes. As the seat of the Archdiocese of Nueva Segovia, it is notable for its massive buttresses, cream facade, and historic religious artworks.

Visitors can expect a large Earthquake Baroque cathedral fronting Plaza Burgos in the historic center of Vigan. The exterior features a cream-colored facade, twin bell towers, thick buttresses and a plaza setting. Inside, visitors see a high vaulted nave, wooden interiors, religious images including the image of St. Paul, altars, and stained glass. The cathedral is an active place of worship with regular Masses, and is within walking distance of Calle Crisologo and other heritage sites.
