Cathedral of La Laguna Church

Address: Plaza del Adelantado, 38201 San Cristóbal de La Laguna, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain

The Cathedral of La Laguna is a Roman Catholic cathedral in the city of San Cristóbal de La Laguna on the island of Tenerife in the Canary Islands. It is one of the principal religious landmarks in the city.

The building serves as the main church of La Laguna and is located within the city’s historic centre, close to civic squares and streets of the old town. Visitors typically note the cathedral as a focal point when exploring the surrounding layout of colonial-era streets and plazas.

The site has served as the city’s principal church for several centuries and has undergone restorations and modifications over time. It has been the centre of major religious functions for the local community.

The cathedral sits in the northern part of Tenerife within the municipality of San Cristóbal de La Laguna, a short distance inland from the island’s northeastern coast and within the densely built streets of the town’s historic core.

The Cathedral of La Laguna (Catedral de San Cristóbal de La Laguna) sits in the historic centre of San Cristóbal de La Laguna (Plaza del Adelantado). From Tenerife North Airport (TFN) it is a short taxi ride (roughly 10 km, about 10-20 minutes by car depending on traffic). Regular local buses (TITSA) connect Santa Cruz and Tenerife North with La Laguna; once at La Laguna bus station the cathedral is a few minutes’ walk into the old town.

• Visit in the morning and check the cathedral's posted service schedule - parts of the cathedral and its museum close to tourists during Masses, so morning hours are usually best for uninterrupted viewing.
• Approach on foot through the pedestrian streets of the historic center (Calle Obispo Rey Redondo and Plaza del Adelantado) to take in the surrounding colonial architecture; the cathedral is integrated into the old town so a walking visit lets you see nearby convents and plazas many visitors miss.
