La primera catedral fue construida en 1541 en lo que hoy es el templo de Santa María de Gracia. Esta primitiva iglesia estaba construida con adobe y techos de paja. Hasta el día 30 de mayo de 1574 todo había transcurrido con normalidad, sin embargo, mientras se celebraba una misa, unos vecinos lanzaron unos disparos al aire en el corral contiguo, algunos cayeron en la iglesia y esta se incendió. La iglesia quedó semidestruída. Por cédula real se obtuvo el dinero para la nueva catedral. La obra avanzó muy despacio, pues escasearon los fondos, mas para febrero de 1618 el maestro arquitecto Martín Casillas había llevado los trabajos a su término. Por fin en abril del mismo año se trasladó el Santísimo Sacramento, de la antigua iglesia a la nueva. En el año de 1818,un fuerte terremoto sacudió a la ciudad, y cuando este terminó había ocurrido una nueva tragedia: las torres y la cúpula se habían derrumbado. Fueron sustituidas por unas nuevas, mismas que también se derrumbaron por un posterior terremoto en el año de 1849. Las nuevas torres fueron construidas por el Ing, Arq. Manuel Gómez Ibarra, costando 33,521 pesos, se tardaron tres años en ser construidas y fueron terminadas en 1854. El Papa Pío XII la elevó al rango de basílica menor, dedicándola a la Asunción de María Santísima. Actualmente de la iglesia catedral continúa en peligro: ha sido dañada por los sismos de 1932, 1957, 1979, 1985, 1995 y 2003. Entre las amenazas que sufre se encuentran: la ligera inclinación de la torre norte, su ligero hundimiento y el daño estructural que ha sufrido la cúpula, entre otras.

La catedral ocupa un área de 77.8 x 72.75 metros. Contiene altares dedicados a Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, la Virgen de Zapopan (patrona de Guadalajara), Santo Domingo de Guzmán, San Nicolás de Bari, Santo Tomás de Aquino, San Cristóbal, San Juan de Dios. Hay 52 asientos de madera tallada además de la silla cardenalicia. La mesa de consagración es de mármol y plata. Los vitrales de colores son importados de Francia. También se encuentran imágenes de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, Del Cristo de las Aguas, entre otras. Asimismo, la catedral alberga reliquias de la mártir romana Santa Inocencia. Tres cardenales están sepultados en la catedral, así como varios obispos de la diócesis e incluso el corazón de un presidente de la república mexicana.

The first cathedral was built in 1541 in what is now the church of Santa María de Gracia. The original church was built with adobe and thatched roofs. Until May 30, 1574 everything had gone smoothly, however, while celebrating Mass, neighbors threw a few shots in the air in the yard next door, some fell in the church and it caught fire. The church was partially destroyed. By royal decree gave the money to the new cathedral. The work proceeded very slowly, for scarce funds, but by February 1618 the master architect Martin Casillas had brought the work to completion. Finally in April of that year he moved the Blessed Sacrament, of the old church to the new. In 1818, a strong earthquake shook the city, and when this had happened ended another tragedy: the towers and the dome had collapsed. Were replaced by new ones, same as also collapsed from a subsequent earthquake in 1849. The new towers were built by the engineer, architect Manuel Gomez Ibarra, costing 33.521 pesos, it took three years to be built and was completed in 1854.
