Trinity Cathedral, Episcopal cathedral in Downtown Pittsburgh, United States.
Trinity Cathedral is an Episcopal place of worship in downtown Pittsburgh built in the Gothic Revival style with pointed arches and decorative stonework. The interior rises high under a central steeple, with clusters of stone columns and upper windows that allow light to flood the nave.
The building was completed in 1872 on a site connected to Pennsylvania's early settlement, with land originally granted through William Penn's heirs. It replaced an octagonal church that had stood two blocks away and served the growing downtown community.
The cathedral serves as a living place of worship where the congregation gathers for services and life events that mark important moments. The regular rhythm of Sunday services shapes the spiritual identity of the Episcopal community in the city.
The cathedral is located on Sixth Avenue in the downtown area and offers wheelchair access for visitors who wish to attend services. You can experience worship either in person or by joining the live stream from home.
The churchyard next to the cathedral holds some of the earliest marked graves west of the Atlantic coast, dating back to the earliest days of settlement. This makes the burial ground a rare testament to the region's early past that remains visible today.
