San Pedro Cathedral
Davao's oldest Catholic church, founded in 1847. Its modernist sail-like facade has become a city landmark, and it sits across from the City Hall.
The church was founded by Spanish missionaries. The current building was rebuilt in the 1960s, and its boat-shaped roof stands alongside the old altar. It is on St. Peter Street in the city center and within walking distance of the City Hall and the People's Park. Entry is free. Dress appropriately, and keep quiet during Mass. There is a security check at the entrance.
