Saint-Louis Cathedral

A magnificent cathedral dating from the 18th century, located in the heart of the city.
Saint-Louis Cathedral in Versailles was built by the architect Jacques Hardouin-Mansart de Sagonne, under Louis XV. Construction was very slow and was not completed until twelve years later. It was blessed in August 1754 and consecrated as a Cathedral in 1843. The facade, decorated with Doric and Corinthian columns, is flanked by two campaniles. A 65-meter dome, topped with a baluster-shaped spire, is placed above the transept crossing.
