Cathedral of Hongtong

Cathedral of Hongtong () is the cathedral of Hongtong County, in Shanxi, China.

History In 1932, the Holy See set up the Roman Catholic Diocese of Hongdong.

In 1958, Hongtong County was selected as one of the two pilot counties for the elimination of religion in China (the other is Pingyang County, Zhejiang). The Catholic church was completely destroyed and the cathedral was demolished. It was rebuilt in 2002 with a Gothic architecture style.
