The CCC is truly a sight to behold. It's the oldest Anglican cathedral and right off CMS bus stop (if you think the church gave the bus stop its name, you guessed right). The church is over 150yrs old but its current design isn't as old.

Worship services hold every Sunday as well as midweek services. It's also the seat of the Archbishop so you can expect undiluted Anglicanism right there.

I haven't been opportune to attend a service yet, but it's definitely on my to-go list.

The Cathedral Church of Christ Marina, Lagos is an Anglican cathedral in Lagos and is one of the most beautiful church structures in Lagos and Nigeria located in Lagos Island, Lagos, Nigeria.
you might just be tempted to visit and have the church as a background in your images because of it's unique beauty.

It is popularly known as the Cathedral Church of Christ Marina and it is the oldest Anglican cathedral in the Church of Nigeria. At various times in its history, the cathedral was the seat of the archbishop of the Province of West Africa, the seat of the archbishop and primate of All Nigeria and the seat of the archbishop of the Ecclesiastical Province of Lagos. It is currently the seat of the Bishop of Lagos.

The foundation stone for the first cathedral building was laid on 29 March 1867 and the cathedral was established in 1869.
Construction of the current building to designs by architect Bagan Benjamin started on 1 November 1924. The foundation stone was laid by the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VIII) on 21 April 1925. It was completed in 1946.
In 1976 the relics of Rev Dr Samuel Ajayi Crowther, a former Yoruba slave who became the first African bishop in the Anglican Church, were translated to the cathedral. There is a cenotaph erected as a memorial of him.

One of the oldest churches in Lagos. Build by the early missionaries in 18th century. The architecture is awesome and it is well maintained as if it was build up recently. The interior is amazing This cathedral was build by the Christian missionaries society (CMS) that is why this area is called CMS because of this earth piece.

This is unarguably one of the most beautiful churches in Africa with mind-blowing interior decor Norman Gothic styled architecture of the 19th century.

It is popularly referred to as the Cathedral Church of Christ Marina, Lagos. It received massive credit for the all-star Nigerian movie which raked in about half a billion naira, the Wedding Party. The movie, the Wedding Party received the blessings of Abraham as it was the first film ever to have had this kind of unprecedented proceeds. It is a well ranked church historically located in the heart of Lagos. Oh, I shouldn't forget the choir, a wonder to behold!

Beautiful Church, Nigeria's first Cathedral and is the primus inter pares of all Cathedrals in Nigeria.

The Cathedral has a beautiful musical heritage and the choir boasts of a broad repertoire.

The Organ is by no doubt, the best in Africa and was recently refurbished by the Holy Grail of Organ construction in the world; Harrison and Harrison of Durham, England.

You can pick up a brochure at the Cathedral Store to learn more about the history of Nigeria's foremost Cathedral.

A conventional community of believers worshipping in a very modern ambience. The choir rendition is regarded as one of the best in the land.

Attended a funeral service for a relation. It was a solemn service where one was reminded of life here after.

The cathedral is the oldest Anglican church in the church of Nigeria diocese. We got a warm welcome and a tour of the well maintained grounds when we visited. It is inspiring. The remains of the late Bishop Ajayi Crowther, a former Yoruba slave who became the first African bishop in the Anglican Church can be found there.
