St. Elisabeth Cathedral, Roman Catholic cathedral in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea

St. Elizabeth's Cathedral is a neo-Gothic Catholic cathedral on the western side of Plaza de la Independencia in Malabo, the seat of the Archdiocese of Malabo and the country's largest Christian church. It has a basilical plan with a transept, an octagonal presbytery and three naves; the central nave is covered by pointed rib vaults and separated from the narrow side aisles by steel pillars clad in concrete. The façade is flanked by two 40-metre towers, and three large rose windows open onto the main and transept façades.

Construction started in 1897 under architect Luis Segarra Llairado and the building was completed in 1916. The project was funded by contributions from parishioners, local businesses, and the Spanish government.

The cathedral is named after St. Elizabeth of Hungary, and its dedication shapes local Catholic life in Malabo. The building was financed by parishioners, colonial businesses and the Spanish government, and the Claretian brothers who directed the works left their mark on the city's religious community. The archdiocese of Malabo has its seat here.

The cathedral stands on the western side of Plaza de la Independencia, facing Independencia Avenue. A fire on 15 January 2020 damaged the roof, so check locally whether the interior is accessible before planning a visit. Restoration of the facades and interiors had been completed by 2018 under the company SOMAGEC.

The 2020 fire broke out on the evening of 15 January, while restoration work led by the company SOMAGEC was underway; that campaign had begun in 2013 and by 2018 had finished the façades and interiors. The blaze struck the roof.
