The Basilica of Saint Mary is a Roman Catholic Minor Basilica located on its own city block along Hennepin Avenue between 16th & 17th Streets in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota. It was the first basilica established in the United States. The Basilica of Saint Mary is the co-cathedral of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis is one of the finest examples of Beaux-Arts architecture in the country.
The Basilica of Saint Mary replaced a previous church, the Church of the Immaculate Conception. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975. Its significance is due to three reasons: its excellent architecture and engineering design, as an expression of Baroque influence in church architecture; an example of the history of religious movements in Minnesota; and its place as the first basilica in the United States.
The foundation of the church is of Rockville granite. The walls are built of white Vermont granite, with a height of 70 feet from the floor to the eave-line. The main entrance is a colonnaded portico with two 116-foot spires on each side. The nave is lighted by five large arched stained glass windows. The nave has a barrel vault of 82 feet, exceeding that of the St. Peter's Basilica by two feet. The sanctuary, at the north end of the nave, is topped with a grand dome measuring 40 feet square at the base and rising 138 feet above the floor.
Our church was commissioned by Archbishop Ireland (1838-1918) and designed by French architect Emmanuel Masqueray (1861-1917) in a beaux-arts style. It was intended to house the relocated parish of the Immaculate Conception, founded in 1868.

Why all the repetition in this video? Misinformation throughout the video! Shattuck-St. Mary’s is an Episcopal School in Faribault, MN and has nothing to do with this Basilica. Why the AI voice? This video is a hot mess and it needs to be thoroughly revised!!!
Clearly, in the last 50-60 years the focus has changed from the proper worship of God to promotion of the entirely wordly, social and political agenda.
You have said precisely what I was thinking. Social work over spiritual nourishment. SO sad.
Yeah...I came back to The Church mostly from digging up where all these Woke ideas originate and saw Catholicism was the antidote only to be saddened to see many parts of The Church have been infected with this Woke nonsense. I'm hoping once these hippie baby boomers lose leadership positions The Church will get back to business.
