Soon after Columbus set foot on Hispaniola, the first cathedral was built, and it can still be visited today: a curious mix of styles combined with its historical significance give it a unique feel.
Of course, the Spaniards were looking for a route to India, they were looking for gold, and discovered the Americas instead. They did not wait long to realize that this new land offered a great opportunity to expand the Roman Catholic church. It was Diego Columbus, son of Christopher Columbus himself, who laid the first stone of the Catedral Primada de las Américas in 1514. Nevertheless, construction was really started upon the arrival of the first bishop, and it took until the mid-16th century to finish the cathedral. It is for this reason that you can see a mixture of Gothic, Romanesque and baroque styles.
