Worth the resources . The Catholic Church is making good use of it for spiritual enrichment of pilgrims and a centre for prayer. The sound system and acoustics remain very poor.

Some say it resembles an elephant, others a wave. I don't know what it resembles, but I do know it's a building that takes you by surprise. From afar you only notice the huge concrete cross, but it is only when you get closer that you can see the rest of the building, with it's organic lines, wooden doors, and slanted roof. It is very interesting. You could see from the outside that the stained glass was very unusual, with African motifs, but when you get inside, it's midblowing! The colours and the bible scenes in an African context (so different from what one usually sees in Europe), are beautiful! I liked it so very much that I visited a second time and stayed for mass (Thursday, around 1:30 pm).

In one of these pictures, the Bay of Cocody is behind me. That bay is a beautiful stretch of water reminiscent of the Lagos Marina. The architecture between us though is a feast of the soul - an experience so moving that I feel the faculties of my soul floating; gently hovering over my body.

(Translated by Google) When I arrived the guard informed me that the church was closed, but also told me that I could enter if I would pay him 10 mil CFA. I had read all the reviews before going there saying it's free to enter so I think the guard wanted to earn some extra money - which I refused on my part.
The guard (skinny, 1.80-1.85m, 40-50 years old) was very rude and he did not have a badge. The incident occurred on Sunday January 31, 2021 at 4:15 p.m. at the entrance in front of the Abidjan Palace of Justice.
(Original)
Quand je suis arrivé le garde m'a informé que l'église était fermée, mais m'a aussi dit que je pouvais entrer si je lui paierais 10 mil CFA. J'avais lu tous les commentaires avant d'y aller en disant que c'est gratuit d'entrer donc je crois que le guard a voulu gagner un peu d'argent extra - ce que j'ai refusé de ma part.
Le guard (maigre, 1.80-1.85m, 40-50 ans) était très impoli et il n'avait pas un badge. L'incident s'est produit le dimanche 31 janvier 2021 à 16h15 à l'entrée en face du Palais de Justice d'Abidjan.

(Translated by Google) Superb iconic cathedral of Abidjan with extraordinary architecture. Built in 1980 to the plans of the architect Also Spirito, it has splendid stained glass windows on its three sides (it is triangular in shape) but mainly on the two sides which surround the altar as well as behind it.
As you enter from a wide side and low ceiling, the entire triangular architecture is amphitheatrically designed to focus the view and attention on the altar. The ceiling, as drawn towards the heavens, is then completely invisible, as inaccessible.
Unfortunately, due to a lack of funds, this splendid building suffers from a cruel lack of maintenance ...
(Original)
Superbe cathédrale iconique d'Abidjan à l'architecture extraordinaire. Construite en 1980 sur les plans de l'architecte Also Spirito, elle possède de splendides vitraux sur ses trois côtés (elle est de forme triangulaire) mais principalement sur les deux côtés qui entourent l'autel ainsi que derrière celui-ci.
Alors qu'on y entre par un côté large et bas de plafond, toute l'architecture triangulaire est conçue en amphithéâtre pour focaliser la vue et l'attention sur l'autel. Le plafond, comme entraîné vers les cieux est alors totalement invisible, comme inaccessible.
Malheureusement, faute de moyens sans doute, ce bâtiment splendide souffre d'un manque cruel d'entretien...
