| 説明 | Built between 1909 and 1915, this Beaux Arts-style cathedral, dedicated to Saint Paul the Apostle, was designed by Emmanuel L. Masqueray and Whitney Warren, and stands prominently atop Cathedral Hill at the intersection of Selby Avenue, Summit Avenue, and Dayton Avenue. The cathedral, the fourth to be the seat of the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis, replacing an earlier cathedral location on St. Peter Street in Downtown Saint Paul, which had served as the seat of the archdiocese since 1858, and stands on the former site of the Second Empire-style Norman Kittson mansion, built in 1884. The cathedral, the third-largest Catholic church in the United States and the sixth-largest church in the United States, features a large copper dome, granite cladding on the exterior with classical details, and an interior with soaring ceilings and massive stained glass windows. The church is a contributing structure in the Historic Hill District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. In 2009, the church was designated the National Shrine of the Apostle Paul by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and the Holy See. |
