The Cathedral of San Felipe is a brutalist Catholic cathedral located in San Felipe, Yaracuy State in central-western Venezuela. Designed by architect Erasmo Calvani and completed in 1973, it replaced a colonial-era predecessor and serves as the seat of the Diocese of San Felipe, established by Pope Paul VI in 1966. The building's stark modernist forms exemplify the brutalist style applied to sacred architecture during Venezuela's mid-twentieth-century development.
