Metropolitan Cathedral

A metropolitan cathedral is a major Christian church that serves as the central church of an archdiocese, overseeing several local church communities. It is typically the largest and most significant church within its ecclesiastical region, often hosting important religious events and the bishop’s seat, known as the cathedra. These cathedrals are architectural landmarks, often built with impressive design and history, symbolizing faith, community, and spiritual authority. They serve both as places of worship and cultural heritage, reflecting the history and identity of their city or region.
