Saint-Étienne Cathedral, Gothic Revival cathedral in Saint-Étienne, France.
The Cathedral Saint-Charles-Borromée stretches 80 meters in length, featuring three naves and a bell tower on its western facade.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1912 under architects Pierre Bossan and Jean Rey, replacing a smaller church on rue Émile Combes.
The cathedral received its designation as the episcopal seat of Saint-Étienne following the creation of the diocese on December 26, 1970.
The building contains two organs: a choir organ from 1930 and a larger instrument built by A. Durand in 1968.
Three additional bell towers and a dome were planned in the original design but remain unfinished due to construction limitations.
