Redeemer Church

Location: The Redeemer Church located at the end of Nguyen Hue Street in Hue City.
Characteristic: The Cathedral was built in 1937 and completed in 1942. The particular architecture of the cathedral is its large doors without partitions.
The verandah of the Cathedral is largely designed in order to make who ever stay in the verandah, feel that they were in the interior of the church. Beyond the verandah, there is a small room to maintain remains of dead Christian’s ashes in small earthenware for worshipping (with burning incense stick). Main altar is made of rose marble and its bloc is 3.6m long, 1.25m wide and 2.8m high. Near by the main altar, there are two smaller ones also made of rose marble in bloc. In the Cathedral, there are drums, gongs deeply characterizing East-Asian characters. The campanile consists of four bells operated by electricity. The Cathedral of the Redeemer has its pointed cone stretching out to the sky and its main roof is covered by tiles. They all show the combination of western and eastern architecture in design and construction. This is a cathedral of fine architecture in Hue City.
