The cathedral of the Archdiocese of Antequera on the Alameda de León beside the Zócalo, begun around 1535 and consecrated in 1733 after rebuilding following earthquakes. Its Baroque facade of green cantera stone shows the Assumption of the Virgin; the interior is Neoclassical.
A Dominican church and convent in the north of Oaxaca's historic centre, begun in the 1550s and opened in 1608. Behind its plain stone facade the interior is covered in gilded and painted stucco, with a genealogical tree of the Guzmán family on the ceiling under the choir and the gilded Rosary Chapel.
A Baroque sanctuary west of the centre built in 1682–90 for the Virgin of Solitude, patron of Oaxaca, with low towers to withstand earthquakes. Its facade is carved like a folding screen of stone, and the plaza in front has stalls selling ice cream.
