Vaison Cathedral, Romanesque cathedral in Vaison-la-Romaine, France.

Notre-Dame-de-Nazareth Cathedral features a tripartite chevet with a rectangular apse and two semi-circular side chapels, with ogival and arched windows.

The cathedral, constructed in the 11th century, served as the episcopal seat of Vaison until its abolition under the Concordat of 1801.

The cloister functions as a lapidary repository, preserving monuments and epitaphs of former bishops who served at the cathedral.

The cathedral maintains regular opening hours for visitors and continues to serve the Roman Catholic community of Vaison-la-Romaine.

The cathedral's apse demonstrates the evolution of the horseshoe arch from the round arch used during the Late Roman Empire.
