- Joe LBillericay, United Kingdom31 contributionsNice exteriorWe walked from the opposer side of the city to view the church, we look at many others along the way. all of which were open. This was the only one that was closed. which is strange as the Catholic Church is supposed to be open to everyone.Visited January 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 3 February 2024
- Katrina HOxford, United Kingdom177 contributionsAn unusual architectural delightThis was an unexpected find and possibly one of the most interesting cathedrals I've visited for a while. Started in the 1850s (so surprisingly new!) it was finished in 1999. The architectural styles change from East End to West End from Victorian Gothic to modern. The west end in particular is very unusual and worth visiting in the afternoon when the sun is shining through the marble. Peaceful and unusual!Visited April 2024Travelled with familyWritten 9 April 2024
- HistoryRepeated9 contributionsA free must-see!This church is a must-see because the facade is beautiful on the inside. Check our YouTube channel for the videoguide to see how beautiful it combines modern and traditional architecture. Free and quick visit, definately worth the nice experience!Visited February 2024Travelled soloWritten 9 July 2024

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Loved lille but even in the churches you have people sitting in the door begging. They harass you as u walk around. As I'm travelling alone I did not feel safe. A crowd of them would come up and beg for money. I had four men at one time.

This cathedral was reported as damaged during warfare and instead of a sympathetic restoration there is a stark modernist facade which leaves the visitor in no doubt as to the statement being made regarding moving on

If you're looking for old, original architecture - this isn't it. The cathedral is an odd mix of the old (towards the back), and then abruptly very new and modern in the front. Also did not appreciate getting stopped by a panhandler inside - perfectly polite and will back off if you refuse, but unexpected.

I’ve seen more cathedrals that I can count and I work in finance so that’s saying something lol. But few if any are as wonderful as this one in Lille. The exterior design may not be to everyone’s liking but once inside it is positively stunning.
They’ve also done a world class job of showcasing their history and telling their story with modern signage and lighting and first rate materials. They’re the gold standard for how other older buildings should tell their story.
I also attended weeknight mass here in the chapel and it was a beautiful mass.
This is a cathedral that oozing dignity and charm. Make sure to make time to see it while you’re in this enchanting city.

This is a grand old cathedral with a new front, including doors. It’s spectacular without the splash of colour one gets in some cathedrals. Well worth a visit. Look at all the figures on the doors.

You must first take in all the outside, and then go inside to be even more surprised. The outside looks like it is unfinished, however once inside it is the perfect jewel.
