St. Patrick's Cathedral is a Catholic cathedral on the Caribbean island nation of Barbados located in the capital city of Bridgetown.

A new cathedral, however, was completed in 1899 and consecrated on August 23, 1903. Today it houses the Catholic religious services, has a training center and has a collection of heraldic plates. It became a cathedral in 1970. It is now the seat of the Catholic diocese of Bridgetown (Dioecesis Pontipolitana).
