Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Prešov, Slovakia, is a Greek Catholic cathedral and seat of the Archbishop of Prešov, serving as metropolitan church of the Slovak Greek Catholic Province. Its origins lie in a hospital chapel built by the Augustinians in the late 1300s. It became a cathedral in 1818 and was transferred to the Greek Catholic Church in 1999. Former eparchy bishops and martyrs Pavol Gojdič and Vasiľ Hopko are buried here.
