Cathedral of Saint John the Evangelist, Cathedral in downtown Lafayette, United States
The Cathedral of Saint John the Evangelist exhibits Dutch Romanesque Revival architecture with a large red and white brick facade at 515 Cathedral Street.
The cathedral site originated from land donated by Jean Mouton in 1821, with the current structure completed in 1916 after three years of construction.
The interior features Munich-crafted stained glass windows depicting the life of Saint John the Evangelist, along with oil paintings of Christ and the Apostles.
Visitors can attend regular Mass services, participate in liturgical celebrations, and explore the adjacent St. John's Cemetery, the oldest burial ground in Lafayette.
The cathedral houses a Casavant Frères organ and maintains a seven-acre historic area that includes the Bishop's residence, recognized on the National Register of Historic Places.
