Wonderful Basilica with magnificent baroque interior

This is one of those places you have to see in person; the structure is truly stunning. I enjoyed the little museum attached to the Cathedral. Well worth the visit.

Stunning!

An amazing structure. A testament to the greed and excesses of the Catholic church. Lovely sculptures and paintings that cost a LOT of money that could have been spent on the poor and helpless. Lovingly restored with my (and others’) tax money. Would be a...More

Love this beautiful church. Have many, many pictures of the outside and inside. If you go inside, and you should, don't forget to go towards the back and down the steps. You will find the tomb of Saint Boniface, who has special significant to Catholics,...More

get there before prompt close at 1800

An impressive and large ediface, having to practically run through the church and being kicked out left me disappointed. Plus the cathedral doesn't open until 1000. Majestic from the outside, particularly from the road between it and the park
