Incredibly tall and breathtaking structure! The style is similar to gothic. When you are nearby, the first question that arises is how they could build it? Such power comes from him! It was not possible to get inside the cathedral, the time was later, it was closed, but such greatness that it exudes from the outside, I canāt even imagine what it is like inside! You definitely need to visit it again! A lot of sculptures, as allegories of virtues and vices. As well as statues and reliefs that are located in niches, give this majestic cathedral its special atmosphere. According to these images, it can be read as a book of the Universe. Across the road from the cathedral is a strip of colorful houses that have their own charming charm.

This is a very stunning, unique and majestic Roman Catholic Cathedral. Standing high above the quaint town of Cobh, it's in a very commanding position, overlooking the town and Cork Harbour. The breathtaking views from the Cathedral made climbing the steps from the bottom of Cobh town to get to the Cathedral high up from the seafront well worth it. The views from the Cathedral are nothing short of spectacular. The Cathedral itself with its 300 ft high spire is a very impressive architectural building with so many details and an exceptional spacious 'Gothic' style interior with beautiful stained glass windows. It's a must visit when in Cobh.
