Cathedral of St. John in the Wilderness, Episcopal cathedral in Denver, United States.

The Cathedral of St. John in the Wilderness features limestone walls, reaching 65 feet in height and extending 185 feet in length at 1350 Washington Street.

The original church at 20th and Welton streets burned down in 1903, leading to construction of the current Gothic Revival structure beginning in 1909.

The cathedral maintains Episcopal traditions through regular services, including Holy Eucharist, Dean's Forums, and the Wilderness service incorporating specific liturgical texts and music.

The building provides visitor parking in designated areas around the neighborhood, with detailed maps available for easy navigation to the cathedral grounds.

Charles Connick's studio created the stained glass windows, while structural modifications during construction required dismantling parts to adjust the sinking foundation.
