Initially called the Parish of the Assumption, it was elevated to the status of a cathedral on September 1, 1623. 

A fire in the temple in 1634 made the construction of a new building urgent. The new construction began in 1635, and by 1844, the new building, along with the interior altars, was completed and consecrated as a cathedral on August 31 of the same year. 

At the beginning of the 20th century, its interior decoration was transformed. What was previously the Temple of the Assumption is now known as the Cathedral Basilica.

Its facade features a two-story entrance with a pinnacle. The side entrances are similar to each other, composed of two clearly Baroque-style stories, with prominent Solomon columns.

The entire ensemble is profusely decorated with phytomorphic motifs. 

The twin towers were built at different times, with the left one being older. Both have a square base with three similar stories and a pinnacle.

The interior showcases a Byzantine-style decoration from the early 20th century. The apse houses a beautiful finely carved wooden choir. The altars feature exquisite sculptures and paintings. In the choir, there are chairs finely carved with figures from the early 18th century and a pipe organ.

The main altar houses the sculpture of the Virgin of the Assumption.
