Sospel Cathedral, Cathedral in Sospel, France.
The Cathedral of Saint Michael features a Romanesque bell tower, three entrance doors, and multiple naves extending 58 meters in length and 22 meters in height.
Built between 1641 and 1672, the cathedral replaced an earlier 12th-century church, with only the original bell tower remaining from the previous structure.
The cathedral exhibits French and Italian baroque influences, presenting statues of Saint Hippolytus and Saint Absende on its Renaissance facade from 1642.
Located in the center of Sospel, the cathedral maintains regular opening hours for visitors to explore its architectural details and religious artifacts.
The cathedral houses a wooden altarpiece by François Brea depicting the Immaculate Virgin of Sospel across three detailed panels.
