The Montevideo Metropolitan Cathedral (Spanish: Catedral Metropolitana de Montevideo), is the main Roman Catholic church of Montevideo. It is located right in front of the Cabildo across Constitution Square, in the neighbourhood Ciudad Vieja. The origin of the church dates from Spanish colonial times (1740), when a church constructed of brick was built on the site. In 1790, the foundation was laid for the construction of the current neoclassical structure. The church was consecrated in 1804; it is dedicated to the Immaculate Conception and to the patron saints of Montevideo, Philip and James.[1] On a side altar is venerated an image of the Virgin of the Thirty-Three, patron saint of Uruguay.
