Sacred Heart Cathedral

The exterior is beautiful and a great sight to see in the downtown area. If you visit during the summer, the cathedral along with numerous other tourist attractions have irregular hours. The cathedral interior was closed when I visited, but even just seeing the exterior was well worth a visit

The Sacred Heart Cathedral of Casablanca, built in 1930, stands as one of the city’s most striking architectural memories from the French colonial era. Designed by French architect Paul Tournon, the cathedral blends Gothic revival style with Art Deco influences, giving it a unique identity unlike any other church in Morocco. After Morocco’s independence in 1956, the cathedral gradually ceased functioning as a religious space and was later repurposed for cultural events, exhibitions, and public gatherings.

Nice place to visit. A magnificent former Roman Catholic cathedral from 1930, designed in the neo-Gothic style by Paul Tournon. Next to you can relax in beautiful garden.

I came here a few days ago and wasn't expecting an empty cathedral. Although, there was an exhibition being hosted: "Silk Road: Reflections of Splendor - Shanghai Intangible Cultural Heritage." It was very interesting to see the different artworks and learn about the historical relations between Morocco and China. The cathedral's architecture was simple, but beautiful.

this was fine , my church growing up was called sacred heart. nothing too exciting in the architecture but neat looking. nice cats.

The Church of the Sacred Heart of Casablanca (French: Église du Sacré-Cœur de Casablanca) is a church located in Casablanca, Morocco. Wrongly known as the Cathedral of Casablanca, this designation is wrong because the church was never a cathedral where a bishop resided. After Morocco's independence in 1956 it ceased to function as a church due to the evacuation of the colonial community, but out of respect for the Christian religion it became a cultural center that maintained its distinctive European luster.

we went during the hours listed on google, but the cathedral was closed and wouldn’t let us inside. there was also construction outside so we were not able to get a great view of the cathedral as a whole. probably a better experience when it’s open

Stepping into Sacred Heart Cathedral felt like walking into a dream—calm, serene, and absolutely breathtaking! The mix of Art Deco and Neo-Gothic architecture had me feeling like I was in a movie scene, and the stained-glass windows? Absolutely mesmerizing. Of course, I had to bring my own flair to the moment—dressed in bold red and black, standing against the crisp white walls of the cathedral. A contrast fit for a masterpiece! Whether you're here for history, photography, or just to enjoy a peaceful escape in the city, this place is a must-visit. P.S. If you go, take a moment to just stand in the center, soak in the beauty, and maybe even strike a pose—because this backdrop deserves it! 10/10—Would definitely recommend!
