This is the second church built by the French on the banks of the Charner Canal since the early days of their occupation in Saigon. In particular, the first church is located on 5th Street (now Ngo Duc Ke, in District 1) and was previously a Vietnamese temple. After the Vietnamese fled here, the late Bishop Lefebvre turned this temple into a Catholic church. However, because this church was too small, France built a second church, which is today's Notre Dame Cathedral. Specifically, Notre Dame Cathedral of Saigon was built on October 7, 1877, by Bishop Isodore Comlombert. The church's architecture is a combination of Roman and Gothic styles, so it is classic and luxurious. This place was built according to the project of architect J.Bourard, including a cathedral, bell tower and park.
