Christ the King Cathedral, Gothic Revival cathedral in central Nha Trang, Vietnam.

The cathedral rises 38 meters above street level with two prominent spires, stained glass windows, and architectural elements featuring pointed arches and ribbed vaults.

French missionaries established the original parish in 1886, while construction of the current concrete structure began in 1928 and concluded with consecration in 1930.

The cathedral displays stained glass windows depicting French saints Joan of Arc and John Vianney alongside biblical scenes from the life of Jesus.

The cathedral stands near Nha Trang train station, requiring visitors to climb a series of steps to reach the entrance at the top of the hill.

The bell tower, completed in 1935, houses a bell donated by a Catholic from Saigon and blessed by Archbishop Colomban Dreyer in 1934.
