Saint-Samson Cathedral bears the name of Saint Samson of Dol, a Welsh monk who came to Brittany in the 6th century and is venerated there as one of the important founding saints.

Saint-Samson Cathedral was never fully completed, at least not in all its parts.

Construction began in the 13th century, and the choir was largely finished by around 1265, as were the nave and parts of the aisles.

However, the north tower was never finished. Only four floors plus the ground floor were built; it remained incomplete due to a lack of funds.

The south tower is complete and was built between the 13th and 17th centuries.
