Basilica of Saint Peter and Saint Paul, Roman Catholic cathedral in Lewiston, United States.
The Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul features Gothic architecture with eight spires, stretching 316 feet in length and rising 167 feet high.
Construction of the basilica began in 1907 to accommodate French Canadian immigrants who worked in Lewiston's textile mills during the industrial expansion.
The basilica maintains its French-speaking tradition through services that now serve both French Canadian descendants and central African immigrants in the community.
Located at 27 Bartlett Street, the basilica contains two Casavant Frères pipe organs, including Maine's largest church organ with 4,622 pipes.
The basilica stands as New England's second-largest church, with a capacity to seat 2,200 people within its grand interior space.
