St. Patrick's Cathedral

The Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral is the original Cathedral of the Archdiocese of New York. Since its construction 200 years ago on the corner of Mott and Prince, it has stood as the heart of old New York; a beacon for the Catholic faithful and an American symbol of religious freedom. And the holidays are the best time to experience it full of festive decor.
