Cathedral in Guadalajara, Mexico, November 1999





Two views of the main cathedral in Guadalajara, Mexico. Also known as the Catedral de la Asunción de María Santísima. Built in the Renaissance style with neo-gothic towers,the cathedral in its current incarnation dates from 1854. Damaged in earthquakes in 1932, 1957, 1985, 1995 and 2003, the cathedral is in some danger of partial collapse, its north tower tilting slightly and its dome's structure lightly damaged.
