Cathedral Basilica Minor of Our Lady of Light, Catholic cathedral in central Curitiba, Brazil
The neoclassical cathedral displays tall columns, multiple domes, and large stained glass windows depicting religious scenes throughout its interior spaces.
Built between 1876 and 1893, the cathedral replaced a previous wooden church from 1668 and received its Minor Basilica status in 1993.
The cathedral contains artistic works by Italian painters Carlos and Anacleto Garbaccio, who created many interior decorations during the late 19th century.
Located at Rua Barão do Serro Azul 31, the cathedral offers guided tours and regular mass services for both residents and visitors.
During renovations in 2012, workers discovered a nine-meter deep water well in the presbytery area, dating back to the original church structure.
