The Cathédrale Sainte-Croix d'Orléans (Cathedral of the Holy Cross) is an historic and famous church in the city of Orléans, France.

The cathedral's chief fame probably stems from its association with Joan of Arc. The French heroine attended evening Mass in this cathedral on May 2nd 1429 while in the city to lift the siege.[1]
