The Basics
The Church of San Sebastian’s central location makes it easy to check out either before or after a guided tour of the nearby Manaus Opera House. Inside the church, you will find paintings on the walls that were created in Italy and brought to Manaus and the interior of the dome. The largest painting shows the martyrdom of Sebastian, the saint to whom the church is dedicated.
Things to Know Before You Go
- The Church of San Sebastian is a must-see for architecture buffs and spiritual travelers.
- Remember to dress respectfully and keep your voice down inside, as this is an active place of worship.
- You should only need about 15 to 20 minutes for a visit to the cathedral.
How to Get There
The Church of San Sebastian lies on the lovely San Sebastian Square, right across from the city's opera house. If you’re coming from further afield, you can hire a taxi to bring you.
