The Saint-Louis de Versailles Cathedral (Cathedrale Saint-Louis de Versailles) is a beautiful Roman Catholic church and a French national monument. Designed by Jacques Hardouin-Mansart de Sagonne as a simple chapel, the edifice was transformed into a church by King Louis XV in 1740 and officially became a cathedral after the French Revolution. Significant architectural features of the cathedral include a 213-foot-high bulb-shaped dome topped with an arrow and ornate Baroque interiors with Corinthian columns, engraved moldings, and sculptures, cornices, and a marble altar. Today, the Cathedral is the seat of the Bishop of Versailles and has a collection of beautiful period artworks.
