The architectural style of the Cathedral is neo-Gothic, which is characteristic of most of the churches built at that time. The temple was built in the shape of a cross. The main entrance was located on the West side. In the center of the main portal you can see the statue of the virgin Mary, and is crowned by the portal is the inscription in Latin. The facade is decorated with a stained glass window-the rose that is the symbol of our lady. The Cathedral is crowned with three spire: the two most high - 60 meters - located on the lateral portals, third, 45 meters high, is located on the East side of the temple. A tower with a spire on the North side called "Fort of David" and symbolizes shelter and protection from the forces of darkness. The tower on the South side is called "the ivory Tower" and symbolizes the purity of the virgin Mary. On this tower there is an old clock that still work.
