Narbonne Cathedral (Cathédrale Saint-Just-et-Saint-Pasteur de Narbonne) is a Roman Catholic church located in the town of Narbonne, France. The cathedral is dedicated to Saints Justus and Pastor. In 1840 the French government declared it a monument historique.

It was the seat of the Archbishop of Narbonne until the Archbishopric was merged into the Diocese of Carcassonne under the Concordat of 1801. (The title, however, passed to the Archbishop of Toulouse.) The church was declared a minor basilica in 1886. It has been co-cathedral of the Diocese of Carcassonne and Narbonne since 2006.

The building, begun in 1272, is noted for being unfinished.
