It is one of the jewels of Fort-de-France. Several times destroyed (notably by the terrible fire of 1890), the old straw and pitchfork chapel was replaced in 1891 by the current cathedral. Its framework is entirely metallic in order to resist earthquakes, but also in reference to the techniques used in France by Gustave Eiffel. It houses the tombs of several governors of the island, whose exact location is kept scrupulously secret. It was classified as a historical monument in 1989.

Elle est vraiment très jolie avec une architecture riche et plaisante à regarder.
Nous avont eu la chance de pouvoir écouter une répétition de messe car c'était un dimanche juste avant l'office.
