The St. John Cathedral[1] (Template:Lang-es) Also Jinotega Cathedral[2] Is the name given to a religious building affiliated with the Catholic Church located in the central park of the city of Jinotega, capital of the department of the same name in the Central American country of Nicaragua.[3]
A small straw structure was installed in 1752, the first church was built in its original form in 1805[4] and rebuilt in 1882 and again between 1952 and 1958. In 2008 it was reported that the church was in need of a renovation.
The temple follows the Roman or Latin rite and is the seat of the Diocese of Jinotega (Dioecesis Xinoteganus) that was created in 1991 through the bull "Quod Praelatura Xinotegana" of Pope John Paul II.
It is under the pastoral responsibility of Bishop Carlos Enrique Herrera Gutiérrez.
