Cathedrale Notre-Dame de la Trinite

The Trinity Church was built near the Laval chateau, in 1070, by the Couture du Mans monks.

Address : Place Hardy de Lévaré
53000 LAVAL
FRANCE

Presentation of: Cathedrale Notre-Dame de la Trinite

The Trinity Church, nowadays Cathedral, has been built not far from the castle, in 1070, by monks coming from 'La Couture' in Le Mans.

The building has been profoundly rearranged over the centuries. It has only been granted the title of cathedral in 1855.

That is the reason why it shows a quite mixed architecture (vestiges of romanesque style, gothic, renaissance, baroque...)

Discover the different stages of transformation and its precious furniture : some altarpieces, statues, furenal monuments, tapestries, a triptych and its organ.
