The only pro-Cathedral church outside Metro Manila, its birth was in the 1700s, the church was still made of nipa-palm, bamboo and grass, in the 1800s the church was then made into a wood and stone structure, finally in the 1900s the structure was made into what it is now, the architecture; Lucio Bernasconi (an Italian architect) took churches in his native Italy as an influence and model of the church. It was finished on 1927 also inaugurated in the same year.
San Diego Pro-cathedral, formerly known as San Diego Parish Church or St. Didacus Parish Church before its declaration as a pro-cathedral in 1994, is an early 20th-century Roman Catholic church in Silay, Negros Occidental in the Philippines. It is under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Bacolod. It is currently the only pro-cathedral in the country and is unique in Negros Occidental for being the only church in the province featuring a cupola or dome.
