Initially, a mother church, Santa Catalina de Alejandría, was built in Moquegua, which was affected time and again by the constant earthquakes that devastated the area. Finally, in August 1868, a terrible earthquake collapsed it and it could not be rebuilt, so the Santo Domingo monastery became a cathedral or mother church.
Church with a single nave, Latin cross plan, built in stone in the neoclassical style
The Church of Sando Domingo or Cathedral of Moquegua, is located on Calle Ayacucho cdra. 6, the visits are made from Monday to Saturday between 07: 00-12: 00 and 16: 00-19: 00, the contact telephone number is (053) 762011 (053) 762011.
This church is one of the few in the world where a present-body Saint, Santa Fortunata, is venerated, whose remains were exhumed from the Calepodio Catacombs after the 15th century, arriving in Moquegua in 1798.
