The Immaculate Conception Cathedral[1] (Spanish: Catedral de la Inmaculada Concepción de María) Also Zamora de Hidalgo Cathedral[2] It is a Catholic religious building built in the first half of the 19th century, by the famous Celayan architect Eduardo Tresguerras. It is located in the Michoacan city of Zamora de Hidalgo in Mexico.

It was built between 1832 - 1838.

In neoclassical style, it bears some resemblance to the Temple of Carmen in the city of Celaya (also made by Tresguerras).

It has a Latin cross plant, and a single nave and cruise ship, where the dome rises. The cover is of neoclassical style, with two bodies and auction.
