Senlis Cathedral
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Senlis Cathedral (Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Senlis) is a former Roman Catholic cathedral in Senlis, Oise, France.
It was formerly the seat of the Bishopric of Senlis, abolished under the Concordat of 1801, when its territory was passed to the Diocese of Beauvais.
The cathedral was built between 1153 and 1191; its 256-foot tall south tower dates from the 13th century. Its transepts were rebuilt between 1530 and 1556 after a fire, and the side portals and shallow east chapels date from about the same period
