Statue of Saint Andrea Kim Dae-geon in Camoes Garden, Macau (Photo)

“In Camoes Garden, located in the historic district of Macau, you can find a statue of Saint Andrea Kim Dae-geon. This statue was erected by the Korean Catholic Community in 1985 to commemorate Saint Andrea Kim Dae-geon’s ordination in Macau.

The statue depicts Saint Andrea Kim Dae-geon wearing a hat and a sash with a cross. It was established by the Korean Catholic Diocese. Beneath the statue, there is an inscription in Korean, Chinese, and English providing information about the statue.

Encountering the statue of Saint Andrea Kim Dae-geon in a foreign land, rather than in Korea, adds even more significance to it. It is a meaningful statue that you can discover while exploring Camoes Garden.”
