The Pro-Cathedral of Our Lady of the Light (Portuguese: Pró-catedral Nossa Senhora da Luz)[1] is a Roman Catholic church in the city of Mindelo,[2][3] on the island of São Vicente, Cape Verde.[4] It is located on Rua da Luz, in the city centre. Built in 1862, it is one of the oldest buildings of Mindelo. However, the church has been enlarged recently, leaving only the façade in its original state.[5] It is the seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Mindelo, created in 2003.[6]
