St. Paul's Cathedral[1] (Korean: 답동 주교좌 성당), also known as Incheon Cathedral and Dapdong Cathedral, is a Roman Catholic Cathedral located in Incheon,[2] South Korea's third largest City.[3]

The Church was designed by Fr. Eugene Cost (of the Paris Foreign Missions Society[4]) in a mixture of styles, including Neo-Gothic and Neo-Romanesque.

The Latin rite Church serves as the seat of the Diocese of Incheon (Dioecesis Inchonensis or 인천 교구) which was created in 1962 by Pope John XXIII.
