The Parish of Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception was built in 1885, two years after the old Iquique Parish Church caught fire, thanks to the initiative and efforts of the Apostolic Vicar Camilo Ortúzar. Its construction just began in 1884 and until 1888 it housed the remains of Captain Arturo Prat and other heroes of the Iquique naval combat.
On December 20, 1929 and through the Apostolic Constitution ´´Ad Gregem Dominicum´´, Pope Pius XI created the Diocese of Iquique, turning this church into the Cathedral of the city.
The Cathedral of Iquique is located on Obispo Labbe street, between Bolivar and Esmeralda, a few steps from the passenger dock and the commercial center of the city.
