The Place de la Cathédrale (French pronunciation: [plas də la katedʁal], "Cathedral Square") is a public square in Strasbourg, France, surrounding Strasbourg Cathedral. The square is accessed from the west by the Rue Mercière, from the south by the Rue du Maroquin, the Place du Château and the Rue d

e la Râpe, and from the north by Passage de la Cathédrale. Other streets, such as that beside Maison Kammerzell (built in 1571) to the northwest, use the Place de la Cathédrale name. In 2000, authorities foiled a plot by ten Islamic militants to bomb the Christkindelsmärik, which takes place in the square.
