Cesar Castellani (died 2 August 1905) was an architect born in the Crown Colony of Malta; he emigrated to British Guiana in 1860,[1] where he designed buildings such as the Brickdam Cathedral; Castellani House,[2][3] the Brickdam Police Station;[4] the New Amsterdam Public Hospital,[1] the Church of the Sacred Heart on Main Street (1872-1882),[1] and parts of the eastern wing of the Parliament Building.[5] Cesar Castellani died in Georgetown, British Guiana on 2 August 1905.[1]

The design of the Victoria Law Courts, credited to Baron Harco Theodor Hora Siccama, is reminiscent of Castellani's, and Castellani was working for Siccama as a draughtsman.[6]
