Virtual Tour of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Christ the King.

The Nave

The circular nave is the fundamental motif of this Cathedral´s very modern plan. Its purpose is to associate the 2,300 members of the congregation as closely as possible with the celebrant at the table of the Lord, while allowing the Archbishop, who occupies the presidential chair (or ‘cathedra´) at major festivals, to be himself at the heart of the circle of worshippers when hearing and reflecting on the Word of God. The floor pattern here and throughout the Cathedral was designed by David Atkins.
