Blois Cathedral, Gothic Catholic cathedral in Blois, France
The cathedral features a long nave with side aisles, multiple chapels, and an ambulatory encircling the chancel with Renaissance-style bell tower.
Originally a collegiate church of Saint-Solenne from the 12th century, the structure became Blois Cathedral in 1697 when the diocese was established.
The cathedral received contemporary stained glass windows in 2000, created by artist Jan Dibbets and master glassmaker Jean Mauret following World War II damage.
The cathedral maintains regular opening hours for visitors and religious services, serving as the central Catholic church for the Blois diocese.
Louis XIV presented the cathedral with an organ loft in 1704 to mark its elevation from church to cathedral status.
