Fréjus Cathedral, Gothic cathedral in Fréjus, France.

The cathedral complex includes a parish church, baptistery, bishop's residence, canonry, and cloister with double Corinthian columns supporting pointed arches.

The cathedral site originated in 401 CE and served as the seat of the Bishop of Fréjus until 1801, when the diocese merged with Toulon.

The cathedral contains two separate churches under one roof: the Church of Saint Stephen for the parish and Notre-Dame for episcopal functions.

Regular masses occur on Saturdays at 18:15, and visitors can explore the baptistery, which represents the oldest Christian structure in Provence.

The fifth-century baptistery remained hidden through centuries of reconstruction until French architect Jules Formigé rediscovered it in 1925.
