The Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Greensburg in Pennsylvania.
The church, originally a parish church under the supervision of the Benedictine order, was constructed in the English Gothic style by the architectural firm of Comes, Perry and McMullen in Pittsburgh. It was dedicated in May 1928, and is constructed of sandstone and Indiana limestone. The parish was designated Blessed Sacrament Cathedral with the establishment of the Diocese of Greensburg on March 10, 1951, at which time the Benedictines relinquished pastoral responsibility.
The cathedral is located on 300 North Main Street in Greensburg, Pennsylvania, and is part of the Academy Hill Historic District.
