Immaculate Conception Cathedral (Brickdam Cathedral)
A Roman-style Catholic cathedral on Brickdam, with a gray concrete facade that contrasts with the white timber buildings around it.
This Catholic cathedral is commonly known as the Brickdam Cathedral. The original wooden church was destroyed by fire in 1913 and rebuilt in concrete, completed in 1925 in the Romanesque Revival style, with a solemn twin-tower facade. The interior is spacious and bright. It is the center of the Catholic Church in Guyana and can be visited while walking around the city. Please keep quiet during Mass.
