Constructed between 1929 and 1932 under the guidance of German priest Adophe Keller and local parishioners, Cai Be Church blends Western Romanesque style with robust reinforced concrete. Despite the passage of time, its elegant form remains remarkably preserved, featuring a cruciform layout with a central nave and two side aisles set within expansive, cool grounds.

A focal point of the church is its towering bell tower, home to a set of four large bells cast in France in 1931. Known for its advanced bell-swinging mechanism, the tower houses a large water reservoir at its base, enhancing the resonance and clarity of its peaceful chimes across the tranquil surroundings.

Adorning the exterior are intricate bas-reliefs and decorative motifs, notably grapevine patterns gracing the main facades. These meticulous details reflect both craftsmanship and aesthetic flair, complementing the church’s serene riverside setting.

Inside, Cai Be Church captivates with its high vaulted ceilings adorned with simple yet elegant frescoes. The stained glass windows not only illuminate the sacred space but also contribute to its unique ambiance, creating an atmosphere of reverence and spiritual reflection.

Every element, from the intricately carved doors to the meticulously laid roof tiles, showcases meticulous craftsmanship and artistic integrity. The church boasts five altars crafted from precious marble and exquisite stained glass windows, all contributing to a space that is both aesthetically pleasing and spiritually enriching.
