Trujillo Cathedral (constructed 1647-1666) is the cathedral of Trujillo, Peru.

Note that in some older sources "Ciudad Trujillo's cathedral" refers to Catedral de Santa María la Menor, Santo Domingo, since the capital of the Dominican Republic was called "Ciudad Trujillo" from 1930 to 1961, after the dictator Rafael Trujillo, who renamed the capital after himself.

History

The most notable maestro de capilla of Trujillo cathedral, from 1721 to 1728, was the composer Roque Ceruti, later maestro at Lima Cathedral.
