Archbishop of Munich in the context of Notre-Dame Cathedral, Luxembourg

Notre Dame Cathedral (Luxembourgish: Kathedral Notre Dame, French: Cathédrale Notre-Dame, German: Kathedrale unserer lieben Frau) is the Catholic cathedral of the Archdiocese of Luxembourg, located in Luxembourg City in southern Luxembourg. It was originally a Jesuit church, and its cornerstone was laid in 1613. It is the only cathedral in Luxembourg. The church is an example of late Gothic architecture; however, it also has many Renaissance elements and adornments.

Pope Pius IX granted a Pontifical decree of coronation towards the Marian image of Our Lady of Consolation (Latin: Sancta Maria Consolatricis Afflictorum), the patron saint of both the city and the nation on 24 June 1866. The rite of coronation was executed by the former Archbishop of Munich, Cardinal Karl-August von Reisach on 2 July 1866. Fifty years later, the church was consecrated as the Church of Our Lady and in 1870, it was elevated to the Cathedral of Notre-Dame.
