Westminster Cathedral

Die Westminster-Kathedrale in London ist die Domkirche des römisch-katholischen Erzbistums Westminster und die katholische Hauptkirche für England und Wales.

Die Kathedrale trägt das Patrozinium Heilig Blut. Darauf weist die lateinische Weiheinschrift über dem Portalbogen hin: "Domine Jesu Rex et Redemptor per Sanguinem tuum salva nos" . Den Namen des Londoner Stadtteils Westminster – anstatt etwa Roman Catholic Metropolitan Cathedral of London – trägt sie, wie das Erzbistum, weil ein Gesetz von 1830 untersagte, den wieder entstehenden römisch-katholischen Diözesen die Namen der historischen Diözesen der Church of England zu geben.
Diese römisch-katholische Kirche wird daher manchmal mit der anglikanischen Westminster Abbey, der Krönungskirche des britischen Königshauses, verwechselt.
