The St. Sebastian's Cathedral (Slovak: Katedrála sv. Šebastiána) also called Cathedral of the Military Ordinariate is the name given to a temple of the Catholic Church in Bratislava, which is since 2009 the Military Ordinariate cathedral in Slovakia.
The first stone church was laid in 1995 and was consecrated in 2003 by Pope John Paul II. However, construction did not begin until the spring of 2007, after it could issue the permit to build in January 2007. The project architect was Ladislav Banhegyi. The roof was built in 2008. The work inside lasted until the summer of 2009. On June 13, 2009 took place the consecration ceremony, presided over by Bishop Stanislav Zvolensky.
