Saint-François-Xavier Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Chicoutimi, Canada
The Renaissance Revival cathedral features a Latin cross layout with protruding choir section and holds space for 1,500 people at 514 Racine Street East.
After two previous cathedrals burned down in 1912 and 1919, architects Rene-P Lemay, Armand Gravel, and Alfred Lamontagne designed this fourth church, completed in 1922.
The cathedral interior displays artistic elements including a 1944 Casavant organ and decorative works by Lauréat Vallière and Joseph Villeneuve.
The cathedral belongs to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Chicoutimi and maintains regular religious services while participating in the Chicoutimi-Laterrière pastoral unit.
Located within the Seminary Street Heritage Site, this cathedral represents the third structure to serve as the diocesan seat in this exact location.
