The Bragança Cathedral was designed by the architect Vassalo Rosa and was inaugurated in 2001, being the first cathedral built in the 21st century. It is a 10,000 square meter space, with seating arranged in an amphitheatre and a pentagonal design of the surrounding area, which distinguishes the contemporary architecture of the monument. Dedicated to Our Lady Queen, it reflects the region in which it is located, from the construction materials, the vegetation of the gardens and even the orientation of the doors. Inside, the tabernacle has the geographical shape of the district and the expression lines of Christ drawn on the ceramic panel by Mário Silva, behind the main altar, reveal a Northeastern style.
