dc.description.abstractThe article focuses on the construction of a new cathedral in Santiago de Chile during the mid-18th century, to replace the one existing until then. Considered a significant episode in the history of Chilean colonial architecture, the new cathedral exhibited functional, technical and representative conditions, which diverge from the one that had preceded it. The article seeks to highlight the dimension and meaning of this urban and architectural operation, made evident in the change of orientation, the dimensions and the internal organization of the new building. At the same time, it refers to the relationship of the new temple with its urban context. The proposed hypothesis is that the decision of building of a new cathedral responded, in addition to economical and ecclesiastical reasons, to the 18th century urban conditions and to the will of getting a new urban presence of the Church. Both its building features, as well as those of a representative character, propose a new relationship between the temple and the city. This was possible due to the cultural, economic and technical development happened during the second half of the 18th century in Chile, and can be related to more general reforms promoted by the Spanish Empire.
