Mogadishu Cathedral Architecture Print / Roman Catholic Church

The Mogadishu Cathedral, also known as the Roman Catholic Church, was built in 1928 during the Italian colonial period and became one of the city’s most recognisable architectural landmarks.

This print preserves a complicated piece of Mogadishu’s built memory — architecture shaped by colonial history, urban identity and the layered visual story of the city.
