St. Cecilia Cathedral

The cathedral extends 255 feet in length, 158 feet in width, and reaches a height of 222 feet with twin towers topped by domed cupolas.

Construction of the cathedral started in 1905 under architect Thomas Rogers Kimball's direction, but the building was not officially consecrated until 1959.

The Spanish Renaissance Revival style of the cathedral reflects the historical connection to the missionary territory of Santiago de Cuba's religious jurisdiction.

Located at 701 North 40th Street, the cathedral features a modern organ with 55 stops, three manuals, and pedals installed by Pasi Organ Builders in 2003.

The cathedral organ includes 29 stops that can switch between meantone and Wegscheider well-tempered tuning systems for different musical performances.
