Cathedral of St. Joseph
Cathedral of St. Joseph, Roman Catholic cathedral in Hartford, United States
The Cathedral of St. Joseph features a 284-foot limestone structure with a prominent dome and extensive stained glass windows depicting biblical scenes throughout the building.
Following a devastating fire in 1956 that destroyed the original structure, architects Eggers and Higgins designed the new cathedral, which opened its doors in 1962.
The mother church of Hartford Archdiocese holds regular liturgical celebrations and serves the Catholic community through various outreach programs and religious ceremonies.
Located at 140 Farmington Avenue, the cathedral offers daily masses, Saturday confessions, and guided tours for visitors interested in exploring its architectural features.
The cathedral contains Connecticut's largest pipe organ, featuring 6,878 pipes crafted by the Austin Organ Company, and twelve bells cast in the Netherlands.
