The Cathedral of Saint Genevieve and Saint Maurice in Nanterre, standing majestically before you, is a place of profound faith and enduring history. Its foundation dates back to the 7th century. Its majestic structure has seen centuries unfold, its walls bearing witness to the city’s transformation. The church was elevated to cathedral status in 1966 when the Diocese of Nanterre was established, and it quickly became the heart of the Catholic community in the Hauts-de-Seine. Since then, the cathedral has been a place of worship, a beacon of hope, and a testament to the power of faith. You may be surprised to learn that the cathedral has a unique connection to the Parisian icon, Saint Genevieve. Legend has it that Saint Genevieve was born in Nanterre, and her family’s home stood not far from the cathedral’s current location.
