Antibes Cathedral is a Roman Catholic church located in the town of Antibes on the French Riviera, France. It is a national monument. From the 5th or 6th century a cathedral was built on the site where a pagan temple had been, the remains of which can be seen in the Chapel of the Holy Spirit. It is said that St Paul was arrested here on a journey to Spain in 63 AD. The church has undergone many transformations over the centuries. Partly destroyed in 1124, the church was rebuilt by the early 13th century. The plan is with 3 naves. The current facade is in Italian style from 1747, rebuilt after a heavy bombardment. In the interior, some masterpieces from the Renaissance and modern periods: A crucifix from the middle of the 15th century in the choir. The transept chapel painted by Provençal artist Louis Brea in the 16th century: it represents The Virgin with the Rosary. The carved portal by Jacques Dole from the beginning of the 18th century. It was formerly the seat of the Bishops of Antibes, later the Bishops of Grasse. The see was not restored after the French Revolution and was added by the Concordat of 1801 to the Diocese of Nice.
