Basilica Cathedral of Mazatlán
Catedral Basílica de la Inmaculada Concepción
A yellow twin-towered cathedral completed in the late 19th century, with a gilded altar and stained-glass windows, a landmark at the heart of the Old Town.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1856 and was largely finished by 1899. It blends Gothic Revival, neoclassical and Baroque elements, and its facade is dominated by a pair of striking yellow spires. Inside you will find a gold main altar, crystal chandeliers and stained-glass windows. On the side is a Star of David decoration, symbolizing the donation made by the local Jewish community at the time. Entry is free, but please keep quiet during Mass. It is on Plaza de la República, opposite the Central Market.
