Review & FAQ:
Built in 1849, the Nuuk Cathedral rests in the heart of the city and is easy to spot thanks to its bright red exterior. The Lutheran church is used for religious celebrations, but is also popular for its interesting architecture, such as its spire containing a moving clock inside it. It also showcases two brass candelabras next to its altar which were given as a gift from the Church of Norway. The Nuuk Cathedral is situated by the statue of Hans Egede who was a famous local missionary. This landmark also overlooks the Labrador Sea providing guests with beautiful coastal views.
