The Church of St. James on Coudenberg is a neoclassical Catholic church on the Place Royale/Koningsplein in Brussels' Royal Quarter, Belgium, dedicated to Saint James, one of the Twelve Apostles. Designed by Gilles-Barnabé Guimard and Louis Montoyer, it was built in brick from 1776 to 1787, replacing two neighbouring places of worship. Designated a historic monument in 1959, it has been cathedral of the Military Ordinariate of Belgium since 1986.
