The Cathedral of Arlesheim is the name given to a religious building affiliated with the Roman Catholic Church, which served as the main church of Arlesheim and the cathedral of the Diocese of 1679-1792, which is located specifically in the Basel-Landschaft in northern part of Switzerland.After the French Revolution, when the Prince Bishop Sigismund Roggenbach had to leave and go into exile in Constance, then he returned to Freiburg in 1793. The building and its contents were auctioned after serving successively as a wine cellar and a stable. It became a religious building again in 1812, and was later consecrated as a parish church of the parish of Arlesheim. The cathedral has now been listed as a cultural monument of national importance in Switzerland.
