Nice Cathedral, dedicated to the Virgin Mary and Saint Reparata, stands on Place Rossetti in the old town and is the seat of the Bishop of Nice. The Baroque church was built from 1650 to 1685 to plans by the Nice architect J. A. Guibert; the bell tower followed in 1731–1757 and the façade in 1825–1830, and a 39-metre lantern dome rises over the crossing.

The Basilica of Notre-Dame is the largest church in Nice, on Avenue Jean-Médecin in the city centre. Built in Neo-Gothic style from 1864, a few years after Nice became French, it takes the cathedrals of Paris and Angers as models: two square towers frame a large rose window with scenes of the Assumption of the Virgin. It was made a minor basilica in 1978.

The St Nicholas Russian Orthodox Cathedral stands in a private park off Boulevard du Tzaréwitch, on the estate where the Russian heir Nicholas Alexandrovich died in 1865. Designed by Mikhail Preobrazhensky and built in 1903–1912 with support from Tsar Nicholas II, it has five onion domes and an icon-filled interior, and a crypt museum on the Russian presence on the Riviera.
