Prince Rainier and Princess Grace held their marriage ceremony at this splendid 19th-century cathedral. Today, the Cathédrale de Monaco (Saint-Nicholas Cathedral) continues to host celebrations and religious festivals. Designed in Neo-Romanesque (Byzantine-inspired) style, the Cathédrale de Monaco features a striking facade of white stones from nearby La Turbie. Although the cathedral is relatively modern (built between 1875 and 1884), the sanctuary houses an altarpiece by the Niçois painter Louis Bréa dating from 1500. The Episcopal throne is sculpted from Carrara marble. The cathedral is the burial place of the Princes of Monaco and houses the tombs of Prince Rainier III and Princess Grace.
