Catedral São Paulo Apóstolo
A modern Catholic church built of granite, with a tall bell tower and stained-glass windows, a striking landmark in the city centre.
The Cathedral of St. Paul the Apostle was completed in the late 1950s to a design by a German architect. Its exterior is rugged grey granite, with a freestanding tall bell tower. The interior is simple and bright, with a distinctive altar and large painted stained-glass windows, and it is the seat of the Diocese of Blumenau. It sits on a small hill near Rua XV de Novembro, overlooking downtown. Admission is free. Please keep quiet during Mass.
