Le Puy Cathedral, dedicated to Notre-Dame-de-l'Annonciation, is a Catholic church and the seat of the Bishop of Le Puy in Le Puy-en-Velay, in France's Auvergne region. Its construction spans the 5th to the 15th century, but most of it dates from the first half of the 12th century, and it is Romanesque in style. It rises from the foot of the Rocher Corneille, forming the highest point of the city, and since 1998 it has formed part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site along France's Santiago pilgrimage routes.
