Panevėžys Cathedral, Baroque revival cathedral in Panevėžys, Lithuania

The cathedral features a rectangular tower with a prominent dome, three interior naves, and carved oak doors adorned with decorative elements throughout the structure.

Construction of the cathedral began in the early 20th century and reached completion in 1933, following earlier attempts dating back to 1860 under Bishop Motiejus Valančius.

The cathedral walls display paintings of ten deanery churches from the Diocese of Panevėžys, representing its role as the mother church of the region.

The cathedral maintains a spacious underground crypt that houses the remains of Bishop Kazimieras Paltarokas, interred there in 1958.

The cathedral houses a Bruno Goebel organ from Königsberg, installed in 1931, along with four bells, including one weighing 1,628 kilograms dedicated to Christ the King.
