Description
The Catedral Metropolitana is one of several buildings designed by Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer in the 1960s. The mostly underground cathedral has sixteen curved columns and a stained glass interior. Standing near the entrance are four large statues known as the Four Evangelists. The building combines modernist techniques and materials with curving lines and free use of form.
