The Cathedral of Saint Mary (Spanish: Catedral de Santa María de Miami) (Haitian Creole: Katedral Sen Mari) is the seat of the archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Miami. The cathedral is named for Mary, mother of Jesus, and is located at 7525 N.W. 2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida in the United States. Since June 2010, Archbishop Thomas Gerard Wenski has served as the archbishop of Miami, Reverend Steven O’Hala is the cathedral's rector.

The first St. Mary's Church was a small wooden structure that was dedicated in 1930. The parish in 1936 moved the church to a new property and expanded it. The second St. Mary's Church was dedicated in 1939. When the Diocese of Miami was erected in 1958, the Vatican designated the existing St. Mary's Church as the Cathedral of St. Mary. Pope John Paul II visited the cathedral in 1987 and it underwent a major renovation in 2015 to replace the roof and make other improvements.
