Belfort Cathedral, Classical architecture cathedral in Belfort, France.
The cathedral stands with two towers and a central portico, constructed from red sandstone extracted from a quarry three kilometers from Belfort.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1727 under businessman Henri Schuller, following designs by Jacques Philippe Mareschal, a royal engineer from Strasbourg.
The cathedral houses a classified historical organ built by Joseph Valtrin in 1752, contributing to the musical heritage of the region.
The cathedral maintains regular Catholic services throughout the week and received extensive renovations between 2016 and 2018 to protect its facade.
The bells of the cathedral, cast in 1903 by Ferdinand Farnier, distribute their distinct tones between the north and south towers.
