In honour of Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, a cathedral has been dedicated in the capital of Kosovo on September 5th 2010, the anniversary of her death. Mother Teresa was an ethnic Albanian. Although Kosovo and Albania are predominantly Muslim, there are significant populations of Orthodox and Catholics.
Several thousand gathered in Pristina for the dedication of the cathedral, which is still partially under construction. According to present plans, it will be the tallest building in Kosovo. It has been financed by the city of Pristina, several European Catholic agencies and a number of private donors.
