St Joseph's Cathedral is a Roman Catholic cathedral in the Baghani area off Kenyatta Road in Stone Town, built by French missionaries between 1893 and 1898. Its design was based on Marseille Cathedral, though smaller, and its twin spires are visible from the sea and from elevated points across Stone Town.
