About the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit, Istanbul
Also known as the Saint Esprit Cathedral, the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit is a Catholic church in Istanbul, at Cumhuriyet Avenue 127/A in Pangaltı, part of Şişli district. As it holds the cathedra, or throne, of the Apostolic Vicar of Istanbul, it is that vicar's episcopal see. Between Taksim Square and Nişantaşı, it ranks as the city's second-largest Catholic church. Only the Beyoğlu church of S. Antonio di Padova, a basilica on İstiklal Avenue, is larger.
Gaspare Fossati, a Swiss-Italian architect, and the Italian architect Achille Bottazzi oversaw the church, which went up in the Baroque style in 1846. Building took a year. Money troubles meant poorer-quality materials, and a major earthquake in 1865 left the structure severely damaged. Restoration started that June, and it reopened that December. Historical sources say it became a cathedral in 1876.
It follows a basilica plan: three naves, in the Baroque style. Two rows of columns with Ionic capitals carry the gallery between the naves, and a coffered ceiling extends along the nave to the sanctuary. Joseph De Cauwer, a Belgian painter, made the altarpiece over the marble high altar, which depicts Pentecost, the Descent of the Holy Spirit. The courtyard holds a bronze figure of Pope Benedict XV, presented by the Turkish state in 1922.
