The St. Denis Cathedral (French: Cathédrale de Saint-Denis de La Réunion) or simply Cathedral of Saint-Denis, is a Roman Catholic cathedral located in the center of Saint-Denis, capital of the island of Reunion, a dependency of France in the Indian Ocean, part of Africa. Construction began in November 1829 and was completed in 1832. This ranks in its entirety as one of the landmarks of France since 13 October 1975.

Henri Martin-Granel had the opportunity to work in the windows of the cathedral. The building was built according to plans Paradise engineer instead of a church that preceded it in the eighteenth century. It took its final form in 1863. It was erected in a cathedral in 1850 and was consecrated in 1860.
