Liverpool Church of Christ the King Cathedral of the Roman Catholic Church in Liverpool. It is one of two major Christian churches of the city, along with the Anglican Cathedral.

In the mid-nineteenth century dramatically increased the Catholic population of Liverpool, because of the Irish potato famine many people in Ireland, mainly Catholics, were forced to emigrate. The city was in need of a new Catholic Church, but due to lack of funds the construction was postponed. In 30-th years of XX century there were large-scale project that could be regarded as "the answer" for construction in the city of Grand Anglican Church. Edwin Lutyens designed the second largest temple in the world, with the largest dome with a diameter of 51 meters. (For comparison, the diameter of the dome of the Church of St. Peter in the Vatican is 41 meters.) The implementation of this project was interrupted by the Second world war.

In 1959, was raised again the question of the construction of the temple. The basic requirements that apply to the bankruptcy project, were as follows: the Church needs to accommodate at least 2,000 people that need to see the altar, and the project should include the portion of the temple, which was built before the war. The competition was won by architect Frederick Gibberd. His project is an example of modern Church architecture. The building is circular in plan, with a diameter of 59 meters, topped by a crown of glass and sharp spires.

The temple was built in just five years, from 1962 to 1967, This rapid construction is, unfortunately, not very good quality – tech roof, fell off mosaic veneer, and in the 90-ies had to have major repair work.
