Créteil Cathedral
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Créteil Cathedral (Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Créteil) is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Créteil, France.
It is the seat of the Bishopric of Créteil, a see that was created in 1966.
The present cathedral was formerly a parish church opened on 18 June 1976 which became the cathedral in 1987. Relatively modest, as was the wish of the ecclesiastical authorities of the period, it is located between the district of Montaigut and the Université Paris XII Val-de-Marne.
Before the consecration of the present building, the cathedral of the diocese was the church of Saint Louis and Saint Nicholas at Choisy-le-Roi.
