Trento Cathedral (Italian: Cattedrale di San Vigilio, Duomo di Trento; German: Kathedrale Trient) is a Roman Catholic cathedral in Trento, northern Italy. It is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Trento, and until 1802, was the seat of the Prince-Bishopric of Trent. It was built over a pre-existing 4th-century church devoted to Saint Vigilius (Italian: San Vigilio), patron saint of the city.
