  • Castres Cathedral (Cathédrale Saint-Benoît de Castres), now the Roman Catholic church of Saint Benoît, is located in Castres, Languedoc, France. It was formerly the seat of the bishop of Castres, but the diocese was not restored after the French Revolution and was added by the Concordat of 1801 to the Archdiocese of Albi. The first cathedral was built in the 14th century after the creation of the diocese of Castres in 1317, along with a number of other dioceses created in the region after the suppression of the Albigensians. It was destroyed during the French Wars of Religion. The present building which replaced it was constructed in the 16th and 17th centuries.
  • L'abadia de Castres, també anomenada Catedral de Castres, fou un establiment religiós fundat a la vora de la ciutat de Castres, al sud d'Albi. El segle IX Sant Benet d'Aniana, per concessió de Carlemany, va fundar a Castres una abadia benedictina, que va dependre del Bisbat d'Albi i que després es va afiliar a San Víctor de Marsella el 1074. Fou destruïda durant les guerres religioses del segle XVI. L'actual edifici fou construït entre els segles XVI i XVII.
  • La cathédrale Saint-Benoît est l'une des églises-mères de l'archidiocèse d'Albi, Castres et Lavaur et est la plus grande église de la ville de Castres.
