The cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lomé, one of the seven Catholic church districts of Togo.
The Sacred Heart Cathedral (French: Cathédrale du Sacré-Cœur de Lomé) is the cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lomé (since 14 September 1955), one of the seven Catholic church districts of Togo. Built in just over a year (April 1901 to September 1902) by the German colonial authorities, it quickly became one of the iconic buildings of the new capital of Togo.
