It was the first church of importance built overseas by the Portuguese. Ordered by King Manuel I in 1514 and built by the master Pêro Annes, it has a sober whitewashed façade surrounded by black basalt and red tufa. The architectural beauty of the building is associated with its Hispano-Arabic and Romano-Gothic lines. Inside, the ceiling has a Manueline inlay of wood and ivory, and a representation of the world and scenes depicting the great discoveries. The gilded Flemish style choir is flamboyant.

Madère ne vous éblouira pas par ses monuments et cette cathédrale n'a rien d'exceptionnel, si vous avez vu les églises italiennes ou même les cathédrales gothiques en France, celle de Madère ne doit pas vous imposer un détour. La ville de Funchal est cependant agréable alors si vous passer devant entrez quelques minutes...

Très belle cathédrale. D'extérieur, on se dit que la cathédrale est toute simple. Cependant, l'intérieur est magique avec les azuelos, l'or...
