Cathedral of Aveiro, Religious cathedral in Glória district, Aveiro, Portugal
The Cathedral exhibits white limestone walls with a tall bell tower and features multiple arched side chapels decorated with Portuguese azulejo tiles.
The Cathedral originated in 1423 as Igreja de São Domingos, connected to a Dominican monastery, and received its cathedral status through Pope Pius XI in 1938.
The interior holds the São Domingos Cross, a Manueline stone cross classified as a national monument, along with numerous 17th-century paintings depicting religious mysteries.
Located at Rua Batalhão Caçadores 10, the cathedral opens daily from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM and provides full accessibility for visitors with disabilities.
