Detail InformationEdit

The Cordoba Cathedral is the central church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cordoba, Argentina, and the oldest church in continuous service in Argentina.
Construction on the original church, the Iglesia de Nuestra Senora de la Asuncion began in 1598, and replaced a less permanent structure consecrated in 1580. Its early works were planned by architect Nicolas de Dios, public works director Gregorio Ferreira, and master mason Juan Rodriguez, who employed mostly indigenous artisans and laborers. Beams and rafters were planned by Mateo Dominguez, and Hernando Alvarez designed and oversaw installation of the roof’s 30,000 mission tiles.
Much of the initial structure was lost in a 1677 collapse. Ricardo Gonzalez Merguete, a Jesuit architect, was commissioned to reinitiate works, and designed the new structural plans. Gian Battista Primoli provided the floor plan, a latin cross outline based on that of the Jesuit Church of the Gesu, in Rome.
