Oldest Catholic church in the Valley |
231 North Third Street (between 3rd and East Monroe streets) Phoenix, AZ 85004 +1 602 252 7651 http://www.diocese.net/site/parish/phoenix/st_marys_basilica/n |
A fabulous example of a 19th century church still celebrates Mass daily in downtown Phoenix. Originally built in 1881, notable features include beautifully rendered stained glass windows and a carillon tower. Honored as a minor basilica in 1885 by Rome, this Catholic church is the oldest in the Valley. An historic visit by Pope John Paul II in 1987 brought this facility national attention. When visiting, please be respectful of this place of worship by maintaining appropriate behavior and attire. Admission is free. Review © 2009, Wcities |
