Saint-Omer Cathedral (Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Saint-Omer) is a former Roman Catholic cathedral, a minor basilica, and a national monument of France. It is located in Saint-Omer. It was formerly the seat of the Bishop of Saint-Omer, but the seat was not restored after the French Revolution. The seat of the Bishop of Saint-Omer were instead absorbed into the Diocese of Arras under the Concordat of 1801. The church is still commonly referred to as the "cathedral" however.
