Französischer Dom (German for: French Cathedral) is a cathedral located in Berlin on the Gendarmenmarkt across from the Deutscher Dom (German Cathedral). The first parts of it were built from 1701 to 1705.

It was destroyed in World War 2, then re-built from 1977 to 1988.

The dome of the cathedral, which is open to visitors, provides a panoramic view of Berlin.
