Franciscan Church of the Five Injuries of Dongshan, Catholic cathedral in Dongshan district, Guangzhou, China

The Franciscan Church of the Five Injuries features a blend of Gothic architecture with Chinese elements across its reinforced concrete structure spanning 1,000 square meters.

Established in 1910 during the Qing Dynasty, the church grew from a small storefront into a substantial religious center accommodating over 2,000 worshippers by 1949.

The church serves as a meeting point between Western Catholic traditions and Chinese customs, offering services in both Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese languages.

Located near Dongshankou Station on Metro Line 1, the cathedral opens daily from 8:00 to 17:30 with regular worship services on Saturdays and Sundays.

The church building houses the Guangdong Union Theological Seminary and functions as headquarters for the Guangzhou Christian Council since 1987.
