Saint-Malo Cathedral
Saint-Malo Cathedral, Romanesque cathedral in Saint-Malo, France
The cathedral features a mixture of Romanesque and Gothic architectural elements, with a central nave, transept crossing, and a high altar adorned with bronze Evangelist symbols.
Construction began in 1108 as a Benedictine abbey, and Jean de Chatillon transformed it into a cathedral between 1146 and 1163, moving the episcopal seat from Aleth.
The cathedral contains stained glass windows designed by Max Ingrand that illustrate important events, including the arrival of monk Malo and Jacques Cartier's blessing.
The cathedral stands in the center of Saint-Malo at coordinates 48.649444, -2.025556, and serves as a stop on the Tro Breizh pilgrimage route.
A white marble Virgin With Child sculpture from the 18th century remains one of the cathedral's preserved artworks, surviving through centuries of modifications.
