Villahermosa Cathedral

The Cathedral of the Lord likewise called Villahermosa Cathedral or Tabasco Cathedral is the fundamental Catholic house of prayer of the city of Villahermosa, in Mexico, and the focal church of the Diocese of Tabasco. The primary church worked in its present area goes back to 1776 known as the Church of the Lord of Esquipulas, named after on the grounds that it was worked to pay tribute to the Lord of Esquipulas, a dark Christ brought from the population of Esquipulas, Guatemala and that on March 18, 1774, was given by the Bishop of Yucatan Don Diego de Peredo.

On April 16, 1884, Bishop Agustin de Jesus Torres Hernandez set the main stone of the new Cathedral of Tabasco, in any case, it was impractical to complete its development, so the Cathedral of Esquipulas kept on being the Cathedral of Tabasco until 1928 when it was shut. Due to the counter religious crusade embraced by then-state representative Tomas Garrido Canabal, which requested the conclusion of temples and devastation of religious pictures all through the state. In 1930 the Cathedral was sacked, consumed and demolished religious pictures, to be changed over into "Realist School". At long last, in 1934 it was decimated.
