The Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul in Douala, Cameroon, serves as the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Douala and was constructed in 1936 by French Spiritan missionaries. Its architecture features a blend of Byzantine and neo-Romanesque styles, with domes, columns, and twin towers flanking the central façade. The cathedral stands as a significant landmark in the city, reflecting the history of Catholic evangelization in Cameroon, which began with German missionaries in the late 19th century.

The most serene place in Douala. It was quiet great place for a quiet moment to pray and a break from the fast pace traffic.

Nothing spectacular compared to some cathedrals in Europe, but most probably one of the nicer ones things to visit in Douala. There is also a very pleasant outside prayer area.

Very beautiful Cathedral built in 1936. It is located opposite the Mbappe Lepe stadium. Good place to fellowship when you're in town
