Located in Malabo, the capital of Equatorial Guinea, the Malabo Cathedral, officially known as Catedral de Santa Isabel, stands prominently along the northern coast of Bioko Island. This impressive Gothic Revival structure, characterized by its peach-colored facade and two 130-foot-tall towers, began construction in 1887 during Spanish colonial rule and was consecrated in 1916. The cathedral was a collaborative effort funded by local practitioners, businesses, and the Spanish government. Designed by Spanish architect Llairadó Luis Segarra, with input from renowned Catalan architect Antonio Gaudí, the cathedral reflects the architectural influence of its era.
