Guardian Angels Cathedral, Sapporo

The Guardian Angels Cathedral (Japanese: 守護の天使司教座聖堂) also called Kitaiciho Church is the name given to a religious building that is affiliated with the Catholic Church and is located in the city of Sapporo, in the Asian country of Japan.

The temple follows the Roman or Latin rite and serves as the seat of the diocese of Sapporo (Dioecesis Sapporensis; カトリック札幌司教区) which was raised to its current status by Pope Pius XII with the Bull "Iis Christi" in 1952.

It offers religious services in both Japanese and English and is under the pastoral responsibility of the Bishop Bernard Taiji Katsuya.
