Cathedral Basilica of St. Louis (The)

4431 Lindell Blvd, St. Louis, MO
Tel: (314) 533-0544 • Web: Visit this site »
 

Romanesque architecture is what you will first see when you arrive at the seat of the Catholic archdiocese in St. Louis, but it is the interior—with its Byzantine styling and a mosaic collection that is said to be the world's largest—that is truly inspiring. More than 41,000,000 pieces of glass tesserae illustrate numerous religious stories. The life story of French king St. Louis IX, the city's namesake, is life story told in mosaic on the walls of the portico.

Choir concerts are scheduled throughout the year, and choral programs and organ recitals are presented most Sunday afternoons.
