Cathédrale Saint-Jean-Baptiste de Nicolet, Roman Catholic cathedral in Nicolet, Canada.

The cathedral features a large stained glass facade depicting Saint John the Baptist and incorporates modern architectural elements with concrete structures.

Built in 1963, this structure represents the fifth cathedral of Nicolet diocese since 1885, following predecessors affected by collapse, fire, and landslide.

The Casavant organ, dating from 1909 and transferred from the previous cathedral, maintains French symphonic sound characteristics in religious ceremonies.

Located at 671 Boulevard Louis-Fréchette in Nicolet, Quebec, the cathedral offers guided tours for groups through the presbytery or Nicolet-Yamaska Tourism office.

The fan-shaped layout of the cathedral includes structural concrete arches with prestressed concrete ties, creating dynamic roof lines in Quebec religious architecture.
