Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, Roman Catholic cathedral in Nanjing, China
The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception features Romanesque Revival architecture with rounded arches, sturdy pillars, and a tall bell tower visible across Nanjing.
Built in 1870 during the Qing dynasty, the cathedral underwent reconstruction in 1928 following damage sustained during the Northern Expedition War.
The cathedral incorporates elements from a former Buddhist temple and stands on the site where Matteo Ricci established Nanjing's first Catholic church in 1599.
Located at 112 Shigu Road, the cathedral holds regular religious services and remains the primary Catholic church in Nanjing since the 1930s.
The structure received recognition as a Jiangsu Provincial Historic Site in 1982, marking its significance in preserving Chinese Catholic heritage.
