Armenian Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, Armenian cathedral in 8th arrondissement, France.
The Armenian Cathedral of St. John the Baptist features Oriental Orthodox architectural elements with a bell tower at 15 Rue Jean-Goujon in Paris.
The cathedral construction began in 1902 after Armenian newspaper calls, with funding from oil industrialist Alexandre Mantashyants who purchased the land for 450,000 francs.
The cathedral maintains regular religious services for the Armenian Apostolic community in Paris and represents a central point for Armenian religious practices in France.
Visitors can access the cathedral daily from 9:30 to 18:00 Monday through Saturday, and 11:00 to 13:30 on Sundays at 15 Rue Jean-Goujon.
The cathedral's construction total cost reached 1.54 million francs in 1902, demonstrating substantial financial investment in Armenian religious infrastructure outside Armenia.
