The Cathedral of the Armed Forces is the cathedral of the Military Ordinariate in Spain. The church was originally part of the former Bernardine monastery of Madrid, founded in 1615 by Cristóbal de Sandoval y Rojas, Duke of Uceda. The church was designed in the shape of a Latin cross by the architect Juan Gómez de Mora in 1615, but construction began in 1671, half a century after the foundation of the monastery, due to the misfortune of the favourite, and was not completed until 1744. The convent was demolished in 1972. The church was therefore purchased by the Spanish Ministry of Defence around 1980 to house the Military Ordinariate in Spain.

Tuam Cathedral, built between 1827 and 1837, is one of the finest examples of Gothic Revival architecture in Ireland.

In the early 1940s, the church was already too small for the faithful and was therefore enlarged thanks to a project by Volodymyr Zalozetsky. With the advent of the Bolshevik regime in 1946, worship in Ukrainian Greek-Catholic churches was banned and only reopened in 1990.

A presbytery was added in the 15th century and a baroque helmet on the south tower in the 17th century. More significant changes to the structure of the church took place inside.
