'''St. Mary's Cathedral''' in [[Jalandhar]], [[Punjab, India]], is the seat of the bishop of the [[Roman Catholic Diocese of Jalandhar]]. The cathedral is located in the [[Jalandhar Cantonment]]. The old church at the same site was dedicated to [[St. Patrick]] and was constructed by Rev. Fr. John Mc Donnel, [[Order of Friars Minor Capuchin|O.F.M.CAP]] of the [[Vicariate Apostolic]] of Agra in 1847.

Initially, the area was under the [[Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Lahore|Diocese of Lahore]]. In 1952, after the [[partition of India|partition]], the Catholic Mission of the Indian state of Punjab was raised to the status of [[apostolic prefecture]] with its headquarters was located at [[Jalandhar]] and was handed over from the Belgian province of the Capuchin missionaries to the British province. The church at Jalandhar cantonment became the mother church of [[Punjab (India)|Punjab]]. With the erection of the new Diocese of Jalandhar in 1971, this church gained the status of [[cathedral]] of the diocese.

In 1987, the demolition of the old church was initiated and the foundation stone that had been blessed by [[Pope John Paul II]] for the new church was laid on 19 April 1987 by Rt. Rev. Dr. Symbhorian Keeprath, bishop of Jalandhar. The new cathedral was inaugurated on [[Diwali]], 29 October 1989.
