Gereja Katedral

Neo-Gothic cathedral facing Istiqlal Mosque, a symbol of unity

Address In front of Istiqlal Mosque

St. Marie Church, more commonly known as Gereja Katedral, is one of the oldest churches in Jakarta. Built over a century ago in the area then called Koningsplein, it stands directly opposite Istiqlal Mosque -- for Indonesians, the pairing symbolizes living in unity. The two towers, the statue of the Virgin Mary at the wooden doors, and the interior dome made from teakwood are the highlights.
