The St. Ann Cathedral (Portuguese: Catedral Metropolitana de Sant'Ana), also known as the Feira de Santana Cathedral, is a Catholic cathedral in Feira de Santana, Bahia, Brazil. The cathedral is dedicated to Saint Anne and follows the Roman or Latin rite. The cathedral also functions as the seat of the Archdiocese of Feira de Santana (Archidioecesis Fori S. Annae), which was created in 1962 through the bull "Novae Ecclesiae" by Pope John XXIII. It is also the seat of the homonymous parish, which is located specifically in the Góes Calmon street, Centro district, in the Monsenhor Renato de Andrade Galvão Square. It is under the pastoral responsibility of Archbishop Zanoni Demettino Castro.[1][2][3]
