Cathedral of the Madeleine

Member Rating: *** 3.0 | Rate It

Fodor's Review:

Catholics have been the largest religious minority in the Salt Lake area since soldiers and miners entered the city. The cathedral was dedicated in 1906. Its Romanesque exterior bristles with gargoyles, while its Gothic interior showcases bright frescoes and a large organ. The Madeleine Choir gives concerts regularly, and tours of the cathedral are offered every Sunday at 12:30 PM.

  • Cost: Free
  • Open: Mon.-Sat. 7 AM-9 PM, Sun. 7-7

An anomaly in the city

Posted by bachslunch from US on 10/13/08
Old style Catholic cathedral is unusual in this Mormon city. Worth a look on the way out to taking a Governor's Mansion tour.
