Roseau Cathedral, Gothic Revival cathedral in Roseau, Dominica.

The cathedral features volcanic stone walls, wooden shutters for ventilation, and stained glass windows in its upper sections spanning the entire structure.

The cathedral evolved from a wooden church established in 1730 by Father Guillaume Martel to serve French settlers along Dominica's south coast.

The cathedral integrates European architectural elements with Caribbean building practices, demonstrated through its materials and construction methods.

The cathedral stands on Virgin Lane in central Roseau, with ongoing restoration work following damage from Hurricane Maria in 2017.

The stone pulpit inside the cathedral was carved by prisoners from Devil's Island, adding an unexpected element to its interior features.
