The Catedral Nuestra Señora de la Candelaria, or in English Our Lady of the Candelaria Cathedral, is the cathedral for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Mayagüez located in the eastern end of the Colón Main Square facing the town hall in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico.

At the top of its frontispiece stood a great strait-flat pediment, mounted on six semi-pilastras and a narrow and long frieze.

[4] It was later resolved to build a second church; architect Don Luís Perocier was asked to create the plans; these were not fully accepted (1920).

The church that was built departs only in its details and elements of the first plans of Mr Perocier, nevertheless they retained similar aesthetics.

[3] Pope Paul VI authorized the founding of the Diocese of Mayagüez on April 1, 1976, which led to the re-dedication of the church as a cathedral soon after.

Ulises Casiano Vargas (who assumed the bishop's office on April 30, 1976), led the drive for the cathedral's remodeling following Perocier's original plan, including its two towers.

[1] The event, which was known as "aguas de libertad" (waters of liberty), was carried out at the Cathedrals baptismal font.
