Cathedral Basilica of the Good Lord Jesus, Cuiabá

The Cathedral Basilica of the Good Lord Jesus features two bell towers and a main nave constructed entirely of reinforced concrete in modern architectural style.

The current structure, completed in 1973, replaced the original 1723 church after its demolition in 1968 due to structural concerns and modernization requirements.

The cathedral holds historical artifacts from the 18th century, including images of the Good Lord Jesus and the Immaculate Conception within its 800-person capacity nave.

Located at Praça da República in downtown Cuiabá, the cathedral welcomes visitors who can explore both the main church area and the underground crypt.

The cathedral's crypt contains the remains of Pascoal Moreira Cabral Leme, who discovered gold deposits that led to the establishment of Cuiabá.
