The Cathedral of Our Lady of Victories is Bafoussam's Roman Catholic cathedral and the seat of the Diocese of Bafoussam. The building occupies a prominent position near the city centre, its twin towers visible from several surrounding streets. The architecture is a product of mid-twentieth-century missionary building — solid, functional, and larger than the surrounding streets quite prepare you for.
The interior is worth entering for the quality of the natural light and the scale of the space, which on a Sunday morning fills to capacity with a congregation that sings with the kind of full-throated commitment that makes Cameroonian Catholic liturgy genuinely moving to sit through. The cathedral complex includes the bishop's residence and diocesan offices. Sunday morning Mass, typically at 9am, is the best time to visit.
