Cathedral Basilica of St. Mary (Trujillo, Peru)

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.
