This cathedral is awesome. Understanding its history and touring the inside respectfully was a priveledge. Photos are allowed

Regardless of religious belief—or agnosticism—this is a humbling experience. Properly known as “Cathedral-Basilica of Saint Louis, King of France” it’s distinguished as the oldest continuously operating cathedral in the US. Originally constructed in 1718, the third incarnation was in 1789, and largely rebuilt in 1850. Little of the 1789 structure remains. The best view is from the Mississippi levee, south... More

Our trip to New Orleans was complete with Mass at the Cathedral. It has been years since we lived in Biloxi and our regular trips to NOLA, so this was perfect. Just as beautiful as we remember.

The church is beautiful! Definitely worth stopping into! We went to mass there on a Sunday, it was very nice. Interesting homily to say the least. This is a HUGE church and right in the middle of Jackson square!

A very nice cathedral in a very busy square. Very beautiful stained glass windows and ceiling art. A good place to visit in the French Quarter when you want to get some quiet time.

This beautiful landmark in the heart of the French Quarter is not to be missed. This site has served as a place of worship for New Orleanians for almost three hundred years. I think the current Cathedral was constructed about 150 years ago. A few minutes spent inside this wonderful edifice is sure to rejuvenate your spirits and your body... More

This is apparently the oldest continuously operating cathedral in the US. It is well maintained and a great place to worship regardless who you are. They are very accommodating and welcome guests. You'll enjoy even a visit. Sat Vigil mass is at 5pm.

Was walking around the French Quarter early this morning and stopped in for a visit. Have not been in the church in a number of years. What a pretty, peaceful place in the midst of the circus of the the French Quarter. Worth a visit!!!! It really will calm you down and give you some peace.

Every time I go to NOLA, I have to go visit the cathedral. It is breathtaking. And while I am not Catholic, I have attended mass there once as well. I highly recommend a visit.
