St. Patrick's Cathedral

Organ


Mosaic floor

St. Catherine
St. Francis

Mom and I visited St. Patrick's Cathedral, a beautiful Gothic-style church in Melbourne. The design is based on old English cathedrals, and it was built in stages- completed by 1939. It has sculptures of St. Francis of Assisi and St. Catherine of Siena outside, and stunning stained glass, gold, mosaic tile, and an impressive pipe organ inside. It was very cool and dark when we entered and there were just a few others there. It took us quite awhile to walk around. I was in awe of its large size (as if it could house giants) and of course, its beauty.
