Vannes Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Vannes, France
The Saint-Pierre Cathedral features high pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and a 75-meter tower that stands against the medieval city skyline.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1450, replacing an earlier religious structure from the 6th century on the same location.
The cathedral contains multiple chapels with religious artworks and hosts regular concerts due to its excellent acoustic characteristics.
Visitors can access the cathedral throughout the year and climb the bell tower for panoramic views of Vannes and the surrounding region.
The cathedral holds several relics of Saint Vincent Ferrer and maintains its original Gothic architectural elements from the 15th century.
