Cathedral of Saint Jude the Apostle

The Cathedral of Saint Jude the Apostle is a modern Catholic church in St. Petersburg featuring angular lines and geometric forms throughout its exterior design. The building employs clean lines and contemporary materials that give it a distinctive and recognizable appearance.

The original parish was established in 1950 before the current modern structure was built in 1963. The congregation received its cathedral status through church recognition during the 1960s.

The cathedral serves as the center of Catholic life in St. Petersburg, hosting regular masses, community gatherings, and religious education programs.

Visitors can attend regular masses and explore the grounds, which are easily accessible and open to the public. The location within the city makes the church readily available to both tourists and residents.

The cathedral underwent a $9 million renovation in 2012-2013, culminating in its consecration on September 12, 2013.
