St. Josaphat's Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral, Ukrainian Catholic cathedral in Parma, Ohio, United States
Description
St. Josaphat's Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral is a religious building in Parma, Ohio, featuring five golden domes made of stainless steel with titanium nitride coating that accommodate up to 500 worshippers. The structure displays Byzantine Revival design with a shrine dedicated to Our Lady of Pochaiv situated on its grounds.
History
Construction began in 1982 and the building was dedicated in 1988 during celebrations marking the thousand-year anniversary of Christianity in Ukraine. This project grew from the community's desire to create a place of worship rooted in their religious heritage.
Culture
The cathedral conducts liturgies in both English and Ukrainian, maintaining Eastern Catholic traditions for a diverse congregation of worshippers today.
Practical
The building is located on State Road, easily accessible for visitors interested in exploring its Byzantine design. The Parma location makes visiting straightforward for both pilgrims and those interested in architectural heritage.
Did you know?
The aluminum domes naturally developed a greenish celadon patina before receiving their gold coating in the 1990s. This visible transformation shows how the metal weathered before the final golden finish was applied.
