	~~TEXT GOES HERE~~		The '''Notre-Dame of Sài Gòn''', officially the '''Notre-Dame Cathedral Basilica of Saigon''', is one of the best-known colonial-era landmarks in Vietnam. Its history began soon after the French conquest of Saigon, when Catholic authorities first established churches for the growing French and local Catholic community. An earlier wooden church was built in the 1860s, but after it proved too small and was badly damaged, plans were made for a much larger permanent cathedral.
	~~<br>[ SOURCE]~~
			Construction of the present cathedral began on 7 October 1877 under Bishop Isidore Colombert and was completed in 1880. Built in the center of Saigon on high ground, the church was designed in a French style and constructed with materials imported from France, including its distinctive red bricks. From the beginning, it was meant to serve not only as a major religious center, but also as one of the most prominent public buildings in colonial Saigon.

			The cathedral continued to grow in stature in the years that followed. In 1895, two bell towers were added, giving the building the form for which it is now most famous. Over time, it became one of the central symbols of the city, standing at the heart of Saigon’s civic and religious life through the late colonial period, the Vietnam War era, and into modern times.

			Its current name dates from 1959, when a statue of Our Lady of Peace was installed in front of the cathedral and the church became widely known as Notre-Dame. A few years later, in 1962, Pope John XXIII elevated it to the rank of basilica. Since then, Notre-Dame of Sài Gòn has remained both the cathedral of the archdiocese and one of the city’s most recognizable historic landmarks.
