Limoges Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Étienne, is a Roman Catholic church in Limoges, France, and the seat of the Bishop of Limoges. Construction of the Gothic cathedral began in 1273 and was not completed until 1888, so its design blends Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance elements. It is notable for its Flamboyant transept façade, Romanesque remnants in the bell tower, and a Renaissance rood screen with reliefs of the labors of Hercules, built in 1534. It is a national monument.
