CLEVELAND has tens of dozens of HUGE Catholic and Protestant cathedrals and churches throughout the city and metro.
Here are some notable edifices ....
I love the contributions. Churches are some of the most beautiful buildings in the world. Here are some pictures of Catheral of St. Paul's co-Catheral, Basilica of St. Mary (Minneapolis).
There are many beautiful cathedrals in Chicago but there is one small church that is
a national landmark. Holy Trinity Cathedral is a small church nestled in a dense
neighborhood in Chicago. Tsar Nicholas of Russia financed the construction
(1899-1903) and the noted architect was Louis Sullivan.
I can't believe the Cathedral Basilica of Saint Louis isn't on here yet. The interior is covered in one of the largest mosaiq art pieces in the world. It took more than 70 years to create the interior art. Before I stepped into this place, I had imagined that such sights could only be seen in Europe or old Byzantium.

I noticed the steps up to Grace Cathedral were all ripped up today to fix a leak underneath them, I think. Sad to see the piles of broken concrete and chain link fence around such a beautiful building.
Having visited several on this list and recently having visited DC, I cannot imagine how the National Cathedral wouldn't be at the very top of the list. All listed are beautiful and transcendent in their own way. But the National Cathedral is simply something apart from the rest.
