St Peter's Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral on the island of Likoma in Lake Malawi. It was founded as a mission station that became the inland African headquarters of the Universities' Mission to Central Africa (UMCA). The cathedral was begun in 1903 and completed in 1911. It became the seat of a diocese whose boundaries and name have shifted over time; today it is the seat of the bishop of Northern Malawi in the Church of the Province of Central Africa. The Gothic Revival cathedral is reported by The Guardian to be the third-largest cathedral in Africa.
