La Rochelle Cathedral
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
La Rochelle Cathedral (Cathédrale Saint-Louis de la Rochelle) is a Roman Catholic cathedral, and a national monument of France, located in the town of La Rochelle.
It has been the seat of the Bishop of La Rochelle (La Rochelle-Saintes from 1852) since the diocese was created in 1648. The cathedral was rebuilt between 1742 and 1784, but retains the medieval belltower of St-Barthélémy.
