Agde Cathedral — See encyclopedia photos

Agde Cathedral (Cathédrale Saint-Étienne d'Agde) is a Roman Catholic cathedral dedicated to Saint Stephen located in Agde in the Hérault département of southern France. It stands on the bank of the Hérault River.

It was formerly the seat of the Bishops of Agde, the last of whom, Charles-François-Siméon de Rouvroy de Saint-Simon de Vermandois de Sandricourt, was guillotined during the Terror. The see was not restored after the French Revolution and by the Concordat of 1801 its parishes were added to the Diocese of Montpellier.
