Who Am I?

I am the largest Catholic church in the United States and the 8th largest religious structure in the world. I opened in 1959 although I was not yet completed. I was designated as a national Historic Landmark on the National Register of Historic Places. I am the Patronal Catholic Church of the United States. In 2008, during his apostolic pilgrimage to the United States, Pope Benedict XVI bestowed the Golden Rose upon me.

Good Luck!

Love All Ya All,
Barb (mountainwitchgnome)
