Cathedral of St Joseph

Sofia, capital of Bulgaria, has always been a city of great religious tolerence. For example, when the Ottoman Turks invaded the country,they did not attempt to convert the Bulgarians to Islam, and still allowed them build Orthodox churches and keep going to different places of worship. Also, when you are in the heart of Sofia, on the famous Boulevard Marie Louise, you will find the Muslim mosque, the Jewish Synagogue, the Roman Catholic Cathedral of St. Joseph, and the Bulgarian Orthodox Church. This Roman Catholic church was built very recently, which explains its very modern design. They built it on the site of the old Catholic cathedral that was destroyed during the Second World War.
