The Primate Cathedral of Bogotá, Colombia, dedicated to the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, situated on the eastern side of Bogotá’s Plaza de Bolívar, occupies a site continuously used for Christian worship since the 16th century. Erected between 1807 and 1823 in the Neoclassical style, it reflects the architectural currents of postcolonial Latin America. Beyond its function as the seat of the Archbishop of Bogotá, it serves as a national symbol, housing the remains of the city’s founder, Gonzalo Jiménez de Quesada.
