The history of St. Patrick’s Cathedral dates back to 1849 when Irish diocesan priest, Fr. James Carry planned to erect a new chapel in Pune. Today, St. Patrick’s Cathedral is one of the century-old churches in the city that has stood strong and proud. The cathedral boasts of a spotless white exterior with a belltower and a verandah that was constructed along the east end of the church. However, in 1984, the roof of the old cathedral collapsed. A major restoration took place after the incident that included re-plastering of the turrets, redesigning the wooden doors and windows, fixing 16 theme based stain glass windows illustrating the story of Jesus, a skylight above the altar depicting the Descent of the Holy Spirit and more.
