  • The Metropolitan Cathedral of Fortaleza is a Catholic temple and historical monument, seat of the Archdiocese of Fortaleza, in Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil. It was built on the site of the old Church of the Cathedral. The construction took forty years to complete, having been started in 1938 and inaugurated in 1978. It has capacity for 5,000 people and its towers reach 75 meters high. Occupying most of Praça Pedro II, also known as Praça da Sé, in the historical center of Fortaleza, the temple stands out for its architectural grandeur and the beauty of the stained glass windows. The French architect George Maunier signed the eclectic style project, predominantly Gothic and Romanesque elements and with references to the Cologne Cathedral and Chartres Cathedral.
