One of the first sights travellers see when arriving by ferry are the spires of the Roman Catholic cathedral, designed by French architect Berange, who built the cathedral in Marseilles. It was built by local French missionaries between 1893 and 1897 and still serves the local Catholic community of Zanzibaris, Goans and Europeans. It's only open for mass on Sunday.
To reach it follow Kenyatta Rd to Gizenga St, then take the first right to the back gate of the church, which is usually open when the front entrance is closed.
