A cathedral is a Christian church which contains the seat of a bishop.

Other churches, which were built with the same architectural features, do not have or never had a bishop. They are also known as cathedrals.

How to map

Draw as an area along the building outline. In cases where it is impossible, one may set a node instead.

Tag it with building=cathedral.
