The edifice dates from the thirteenth century , having been erected on the site of an earlier building that was destroyed during the Massacre at Béziers in the Albigensian Crusade . The cathedral was formerly the seat of the Bishopric of Béziers , which was dissolved by the Concordat of 1801 and annexed into the Diocese of Montpellier
