The San Isidro Cathedral is one of the most important structures in the city and is located in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is at 16200th Del Libertador Avenue, opposite “Plaza Mitre” or “Plaza de San Isidro” in San Isidro’s historic quarter. Built on the site of a 1706 chapel opened by the city’s founder, Captain Domingo de Acassuso, the cathedral was designed by French architects Dunant and Paquin and inaugurated on July 14, 1898. It is constructed in neogothic style and stands 68 m (223 ft) tall. Its base is a Latin cross. Its walls are built from materials like rock and bricks, and it has stained glass windows. The cathedral underwent a restoration project which was completed in 2007.
