Saint Peter and Paul Metropolitan Cathedral is the seat of the Archdiocese of Tuguegarao City. The church with belfry is the biggest Spanish-built church in Cagayan Valley, constructed under the supervision of Fr. Antonio Lobato, OP on June 17, 1761 to 1767 (Cagayan Souvenir Program, 1968). The Cathedral is one of Spanish buildings that survived in the city, after it suffered massive destruction in World War II and was rebuilt by Msgr. Bishop Constance Jurgens. The picture of the Cathedral appears at Rome Basilica and is considered as one of the most beautiful works of art in the country and the world today.
