cathedral of st catherine
The Sé Catedral de Santa Catarina, more popularly known as Se Cathedral, stands as a monumental testament to the architectural prowess and historical significance of the Portuguese in India. Constructed to commemorate the victory of the Portuguese over a Muslim army in 1510, the cathedral was dedicated to Saint Catherine on the day of their triumph. It is not only the cathedral of the Latin Church Archdiocese of Goa and Daman but also a part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Churches and convents of Goa. With its Portuguese-Manueline style, the Se Cathedral is a marvel of historical artistry, reflecting the grandeur and spiritual heritage of its time.
