St Joseph's Cathedral, Roman Catholic cathedral in Gunfoundry, Hyderabad, India

The cathedral features Italian architectural elements with a central hall accommodating 500 people and two distinct bell towers at the front entrance.

Construction of St Joseph's Cathedral started in 1869 under Fr Antonio Tagliabue and reached completion in 1872 under Fr Luigi Malbreti's supervision.

The cathedral contains tombs of three significant priests - Fr Malbreti, Vismara, and Caprotti - plus a reproduction of Michelangelo's Pieta.

Daily mass takes place twice, at 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM in English, with additional services scheduled for Sundays and religious celebrations.

Five large bells imported from Italy in 1892 remain functional in the bell towers, creating musical compositions including the Ave Maria hymn.
