Basilica Nuestra Señora De La Altagracia

This beautiful Cathedral is nothing short of breathtaking, this religious Cathedral is steeped in architectural and religious history and it truly has to be visited in order to understand and see the fabulous beautiful place for yourself, we visited and attended holy communion and we were fortunate enough to be blessed it was a memory that will stay with me for the rest of my life. After visiting the Cathedral the surrounding grounds you can have a light refreshment in the cafeteria, there is a gift shop with lots of gifts and souvenirs, there is also a candle lighting area where you can light a candle and say a prayer.

Beautiful and peaceful. There's a sense of calmness. Well maintained and clean. Don't miss going to the altar to see it up close. The place is extremely well maintained and clean. Not very crowded on a weekday. Large parking lot and bathroom available.

What an amazing experience. We really enjoyed our visit to the basilica, with its great architectural design and the beautiful grounds. The site museum shows you the history of the building and relics related to the adoration of the icon inside the church, we had the opportunity and the pleasure of listening to a singer and organ player while we were admiring the interior of the basilica.. Do not miss this very important and beautiful religious site when you visit The Dominican Republic.

Visiting the Basílica Nuestra Señora de la Altagracia was an unforgettable and moving experience. The moment you step inside, you feel a deep sense of peace and reverence. The architecture is breathtaking, with soaring ceilings and beautiful stained glass that fills the space with light. Beyond its beauty, the basilica carries a profound spiritual presence — it’s a place where faith, history, and culture come together in the most powerful way. Whether you come to pray, reflect, or simply admire its grandeur, you leave with a feeling of calm and connection. Truly a sacred and inspiring place that touches the heart.

Very pleasant and peaceful place. The photos show the old and the new location.

Beautiful place. Well maintained architectural marvel. Must visit place if you are nearby

Visited this church during an excursion. Beutiful and unique building. It is the biggest church in Dominican Republic. Even The Papa visited it, and donated the golden crown incrustated with precious stones and the ikon of Saint Marry. This told us our guide, so if it is not right, then just look for this information online by yourself.

It was a stop we made on one of my tour excursions. This is an absolutely beautiful church. Unfortunately we couldn't go inside to really look around. They were having service at the time.
