Catedral Metropolitana de São Sebastião

This monument was inspired by the Chichén Itzá pyramid, a structure of the Maya civilization in Mexico. However, here the base is circular, with four stained-glass windows representing the four characteristics of the church. The numbers are impressive: it stands 64 meters tall internally, with a total area of 8,000 m² and a seating capacity for 5,000 people. In the basement, there is the Archdiocesan Museum of Sacred Art, featuring pieces such as the font used to baptize the princes of the Royal Family and the throne of Dom Pedro II. The church is dedicated to the patron saint of the city, São Sebastião, and holds Mass every day: Monday at 12:00 PM in the Chapel of Souls; Tuesday to Saturday at 12:00 PM in the JMJ Chapel; and Sunday at 10:00 AM at the Main Altar.
