Beautiful cathedral. Impressive wooden structure inside the cathedral. Note that men in shorts and ladies in short skirts will not be allowed entry

Amazing wooden church in beautiful Paramaribo. One of the oldest wooden charges in the Caribbean!

One of the most beautiful historical buildings of Paramaribo Capital. This wooden cathedral is much worth visiting. It has a rich history. of course you also can attend a service there. But the St. Petrus and Paulus Basilisk is open everyday for visitors. Do make a small contribution for maintenance do. that helps to keep it the way it is. inside there is a lot of decorated Cedar wood ornaments.

Beautiful...no shorts or inappropriate attire to enter...

Very beatiful cathedral outside! But there is a dress code and guard in front of it. It should be open for everyone to enter like all churches in Europe!

A lovely place for a visit. Our guide was knowledgeable and delightful. It’s a short tour, no more than 90 minutes max. But well worth for getting some insight into the history and culture of Suriname

The Basilica gives you a sense of how small a part you are in God's great creation and yet gives you a sense of belonging as well.

A beautiful wooden building in the center of #Paramaribo. I think it makes for a good tourist attraction.

The cathedral is getting renovated.

(Translated by Google) This is a very nice museum where we were kindly received by Glenn Wijngaard who then gave an extensive tour. We were subsequently initiated by Cristina van Russel-Henar into the secrets of the Koto headdress. Again a passionate story of a woman who apparently made it her life's work to record the story of the Koto fashion for the future in a museum. (Original) Dit is een alleraardigst museum waar we vriendelijk werden ontvangen door Glenn Wijngaard die vervolgens een uitgebreide rondleiding verzorgde. Vervolgens werden we door Cristina van Russel-Henar ingewijd in de geheimen van de Koto hoofddracht. Opnieuw een gepassioneerd verhaal van een vrouw die het kennelijk tot haar levenswerk heeft gemaakt om het verhaal van de Koto kledingwijze voor de toekomst vast te leggen in een museum.

Imposing building considering it’s all wooden construction. Reasonably well kept on the outside, the inside is an awesome mix of craftsmanship and art. It is one of the architectural gems of the city. Don’t mis it when visiting

Great architecture and colors. Biggest wooden church in South America

😁

A very impressive wooden structure definitely worth a quick visit. Open in the mornings, dress code is enforced.

Unique

A well preserved Cathedral made of wood in Paramaribo

(Translated by Google) How beautiful the Cathedral has become (Original) Wat is de Kathedraal toch mooi geworden

Name.

The Cathedral in Paramaribo is an airy and dare I say unique edifice. Inside and outside it is all made out of gorgeously preserved wood. For sure the Church has been doing a great paint job over the years! Interesting is the grave of Peerke Donders, the missionary who went to Suriname to fight leprosy. He died in Batavia, Suriname but was reburied in the Cathedral.

I have tried to visit twice. The hours posted on Google must be wrong. They have been closed each time. I would love to add an accurate review, but first need to find the doors unlocked.

I'd heard great things about this museum so was a bit disappointed but maybe because I'm not so interested in such a specialist subject. I thought the price of Fort Zeelandia was much better value at 25 Surinamese dollars compared to the 40 Surinamese dollars for this smaller museum. I was also uncomfortable with the guide leaving the guests to knock outside without answering.

It is cool.

The lady inside was from the start overly pushy about the "option" to give a small donation in the trunk. I walked a little inside and took 1 or 2 pictures and was right away about to leave. I had just changed money into local currency and I had only big bank notes so I thought I would do that some other time. The lady became absolutely nasty and pressed me to get out, closing the door on my face, seething with harsh words. I was accompanied by an 86 year old tourist who didn't understand what was going on but had to leave as well. As I tried to answer she was raising her voice and I prefereded not to insist. Scary and sad experience. Beautiful building otherwise. Make sure you have small change if you go inside!!!
