Saint Paul Catholic Church

Saint Paul Catholic Church is a church building in central Bergen located where Christies street and Nygård street intersect. It sits between Lille Lungegårdsvann lake and the Nygårdshøyden district, functioning as a worship space for the local Catholic community.

The parish was established in 1858 and the church building was completed in 1870, marking when Catholic worship formally began in Bergen. This founding was a significant moment for the growing Catholic population in the city.

The congregation brings together people from many backgrounds who gather regularly for worship and community life. This place serves as a spiritual center for Catholics from across the world living in Bergen.

The church holds regular services throughout the week in multiple languages to serve its diverse congregation. Visitors should check opening times in advance and dress respectfully when attending services.

The site includes a school that serves children from the local Catholic community and contributes to the place as a center for religious education. The school remains an active part of the church's role in the neighborhood.
