Cathedral of the Sacred Heart, Cathedral in Monroe Park, Richmond, United States
The Cathedral of the Sacred Heart features two 90-foot towers constructed with Virginia granite foundations and Indiana limestone walls.
Construction began in 1903 through the donations of Thomas Fortune Ryan and his wife, making it the only cathedral funded by a single family.
The Cathedral functions as the mother church for the Catholic Diocese of Richmond and manages the Catholic Campus Ministry for Virginia Commonwealth University.
Visitors may explore the cathedral Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, with weekend access limited to Mass times.
The portico displays carved text reading 'If Ye Love Me Keep My Commandments' and incorporates Corinthian columns in its design.
