Our Lady of Guadalupe Co-Cathedral, Catholic co-cathedral in Anchorage, United States
Our Lady of Guadalupe Co-Cathedral is a Mission Revival structure featuring a main sanctuary, a bell tower, and a ceremonial entrance along Wisconsin Street. The modern building was designed to accommodate both liturgical celebrations and community gatherings.
The parish was founded in the 1970s and initially met in a Methodist church before moving to its current building in 2005, which was designed by Architects Alaska. This relocation marked a significant turning point for the growing community.
Services here are conducted in both English and Spanish, reflecting the linguistic diversity of the local community. The religious calendar is marked with processions and special ceremonies throughout the year.
The cathedral is primarily accessible during worship services, with office hours limited to Tuesday through Thursday from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Those interested in baptisms or wedding arrangements should plan to visit during these office hours.
Inside this building sits the chair used by Pope John Paul II when he visited Anchorage in 1981. This historical seat stands as a quiet reminder of a significant moment in the community's life.
