Lonely Planet review for La Catedral de Lima
Next to the Archbishop’s palace resides the cathedral, on the same plot of land that Pizarro designated for the city’s first church in 1535. Though it retains a baroque facade, the building you see today has been built and rebuilt numerous times: in 1551, in 1622 and after the earthquakes of 1687 and 1746. The last major restoration was completed in 1940.
