Description:

Cap Haïtien Cathedral, located on the central square of the eponymous city of Haiti, located on the northern shore of the island, presumably was founded in 1878. Construction took several decades.

The snow-white cathedral with beige columns has two bell towers and three main entrances. Inside, the dome is painted blue.

In front of the Cathedral there is a monument to one of the national heroes Toussaint-Louverture, who played a great role in the liberation of the island from slavery, and was proclaimed governor for life.
