Viviers Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Viviers, France

The cathedral features a prominent 11th-century bell tower and stands on the western bank of the Rhône River in the Ardèche department.

The cathedral's construction started in the 11th century with Romanesque elements, while its vaulted ceiling required reconstruction in the 18th century after destruction during religious wars.

The Cathedral of Saint Vincent serves as the episcopal seat for the Diocese of Viviers, which traces its origins back to the 4th century.

Visitors can access the cathedral throughout the year for religious services, architectural tours, and viewing of religious artifacts within the stone walls.

Lightning struck one of the cathedral's spires in September 2021, adding to existing damage from a 2019 earthquake that necessitated structural repairs.
