St Joseph's Church, Macau

Gate of St Joseph's Church (9 November, 2007)


The St Joseph's Church, or Igreja de São José, is a church within the St Joseph's Seminary in Macau. It is located at Rua da Prata.

The church has two brick roofed towers, and was a favourite among artists. St Joseph's Church is laid out in cruciform shape, with a high domed ceiling. The excellent acoustics of the church makes it an ideal venue of concerts, including the annual International Music Festival. There is a door beside the altar that leads to a walled garden with an ancient well and a plant nursery.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
