The Co-Cathedral of Saint Julian (Galician: Concatedral de San Xiao; Spanish: Catedral de San Julian) is a Roman Catholic church in the town of Ferrol in the autonomous community of Galicia, Spain.

History[edit]

The church was erected in the 18th-century, designed by Julián Sánchez Bort, who based his Neoclassical design on the church of Sant'Andrea delle Fratte in Rome.

The church was made co-cathedral along with the Cathedral of Mondoñedo in 1959.[1]
