It is one of the jewels of Fort-de-France. Several times destroyed (notably by the terrible fire of 1890), the old straw and pitchfork chapel was replaced in 1891 by the current cathedral. Its framework is entirely metallic in order to resist earthquakes, but also in reference to the techniques used in France by Gustave Eiffel. It houses the tombs of several governors of the island, whose exact location is kept scrupulously secret. It was classified as a historical monument in 1989.

La maison du Bon Dié
Belle église à visiter avant et pendant un office : les célébrations sont vivantes et la prédication des prêtres se font dans un style direct et personnel. Les chorales qui se succèdent d'une semaine à l'autre rivalisent en qualité avec parfois une performance au tambour bèlè.

Il faut rentrer voir l'intérieur
J'avais admiré cet église déjà 3 fois lors de voyage en Martinique mais je n'avais jamais eu l'opportunité de visiter l'intérieur car nos voyages étaient en semaine.
Elle est vraiment très jolie avec une architecture riche et plaisante à regarder.
Nous avont eu la chance de pouvoir écouter une répétition de messe car c'était un dimanche juste avant l'office.

grande église ou petite cathédrale...
en tout cas très photogénique ! on a adoré les différents angles depuis les rues adjacentes et aussi le reflet dans l'immeuble en face . Non visitée.
