Versailles Cathedral (French: Cathédrale Saint-Louis de Versaillesis a Roman Catholic church located in Versailles, France. It is a national monument. It is the seat of the Bishop of Versailles, created as a constitutional bishopric in 1790 and confirmed by the Concordat of 1801.It was built as the parish church of Saint Louis before becoming the cathedral of the new diocese. The building is of the mid-18th century: the first stone was laid, by Louis XV, on 12 June 1743 and the church was consecrated on 24 August 1754. The architect was Jacques Hardouin-Mansart de Sagonne (1711-1778), a grandson of the famous architect Jules Hardouin-Mansart. In 1764 Louis-François Trouard added the Chapelle de la Providence (now the Chapelle des Catéchismesto the northern transept. During the French Revolution it was used as a Temple of Abundance, and badly defaced. It was chosen and used as the cathedral by the post-Revolutionary bishop, who preferred it to the church of Notre-Dame in Versailles, which had been the choice of the preceding constitutional bishop. Its consecration as a cathedral was however severely delayed, and was not performed until 1843, by the dioceses third bishop, Louis-Marie-Edmond Blanquart de Bailleul.

Situated in a quiet district of Versailles, here is this huge & renovated cathedral with golden domes and a vast forecourt. Worth going there just for the architecture and the restaurants nearby... Less than a 15 minute walk from the Château.

Its a quiet, beautiful church overshadowed by the grandeur of the Versailles palace. It has some beautiful stained glass behind the altar. If you are not pressed for time its worth stopping by on your way back to the train station.
