This lovely monument is the seat of the Suffragan Diocese of San Sebastian and is under the Archdiocese of Pamplona y Tudela. It is the most prominent religious building of the city and also the largest of Gipuzkoa. This was built in the late 19th century and has been designated as a cathedral since 1953. The cathedral is built in an old Neo- Gothic style.

The main features that enhances the beauty of the cathedral are-

• Indoor Furniture: The cathedral went through extensive reforms in 1972 and is at present even more beautiful. The carvings on the walls, the pillars, the chairs and the altar of the good Shepherd are all extremely beautiful. The figures of the 4 Evangelists along with other altars and shrines make an important part of the interior.
• Stained Glass: The stained glasses of the cathedral were designed by Juan Bautista Lazaro. These occupy seven double windows and have motifs of Jesus Christ, the 12 apostles, sacred hearts of Jesus and Mary and other holy figures.
