Saint-Omer Cathedral

Saint-Omer Cathedral ("Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Saint-Omer") is a Roman Catholic cathedral, and a national monument of France, located in Saint-Omer. It was formerly the seat of the Bishop of Saint-Omer, but the see was not restored after the French Revolution, being instead absorbed into the Diocese of Arras under the Concordat of 1801. It is a very popular tourist attraction in St. Omer as thousands of English school children visit it every year.
