Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cathedral, Guasdualito

The building began as a parish church ("Church of Our Lady of Mount Carmel"). The bells were donated in 1940 while the cathedral clock was donated by the Italian Vicenzo Guarino in 1954. In February 1948 the cathedral was affected by a fire and had to be repaired. In 1988 the building underwent significant changes in its structure

The church acquired cathedral status in 2015 with the separation of the jurisdiction of the Diocese of San Fernando de Apure (Dioecesis Sancti Ferdinandi Apurensis). Now a Roman or Latin rite cathedral, it functions as the headquarters of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Guasdualito which is a suffragan of the Metropolitan Archdiocese of Mérida^[3] and was created by decision of Pope Francis^[4] on December 3, 2015.
