The former cathedral of Boulogne (artistic reconstruction)
The former French Catholic diocese of Boulogne existed from 1567 to the
French Revolution. It was created after the
diocese of Thérouanne was suppressed because of war damage to the see; effectively this was a renaming. It belonged to the
Archdiocese of Reims. The
Concordat of 1801 suppressed the diocese of
Boulogne, transferring its territory to the
diocese of Arras.
[1] The seat was the
Boulogne Cathedral, demolished in 1793.
