Metropolitan Cathedral of Medellin
 

This is the Metropolitan Cathedral of Medellin, its construction began on January 15th in 1875. When works began the construction presented many problems because the architect didn’t know sufficient  to develop this construction. How to Because of this the construction of the cathedral was suspended because it was not prudent to continue with the execution of the works. This is called the first phase.
 
After in the called second phase another person reformulated the project then the structural works finalized on May 24th in 1917 but the construction aren’t finish because lacked details ornamentals.
 
Finally in 1952 thanks to Pablo Tobon Uribe this monumental building was completed with a great illumination that was designed by the house Rambusch Dec. (New York), factory founded in 1892.
 
Thank you very much for read my write.
