Places to see in ( New Orleans - USA ) St Louis Cathedral
The Cathedral-Basilica of Saint Louis, King of France, also called St. Louis Cathedral, is the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of New Orleans and is the oldest cathedral in what would become the United States. The first church on the site was built in 1718; the third, built in 1789, was raised to cathedral rank in 1793. The cathedral was expanded and largely rebuilt in 1850, with little of the 1789 structure remaining.
Saint Louis Cathedral is in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana, United States, on the Place John Paul II (French: Place Jean-Paul II), a promenaded section of Chartres Street (rue de Chartres) that runs for one block between St. Peter Street (rue Saint-Pierre) on the upriver boundary and St. Ann Street (rue Sainte-Anne) on the downriver boundary. It is located next to Jackson Square and facing the Mississippi River in the heart of New Orleans, situated between the historic buildings of the Cabildo and the Presbytère.
Three Roman Catholic churches have stood on the site since 1718, when the city was founded. The first was a crude wooden structure in the early days of the French colony. As the French were Catholic, their church was prominently located on the town square. Construction of a larger brick and timber church was begun in 1725 and was completed in 1727. Along with numerous other buildings, the church was destroyed in the Great New Orleans Fire (1788) on Good Friday, March 21, 1788. The cornerstone of a new church was laid in 1789 and the building was completed in 1794. In 1793 Saint Louis Church was elevated to cathedral rank as the See of the Diocese of New Orleans, making it one of the oldest cathedrals in the United States. In 1819, a central tower with the clock and bell was added.
Saint Louis Cemetery is known as the burial place of Voodoo priestess Marie Laveau; her tomb attracts hundreds of pilgrims every year. The cemetery is also the burial place of various prominent New Orleans residents, including Étienne de Boré, Homer Plessy, Bernard de Marigny, Benjamin Henry Latrobe (architect of the first American Cathedral in Baltimore and the US Capitol), Barthelemy Lafon, Paul Morphy, and Ernest Nathan Morial.

ST LOUIS CATHEDRAL Catholic Church - New Orleans #Travel | Things to Do in New Orleans | LaneVids
I took my 9 month old daughter to the St. Louis Cathedral in New Orleans, LA to shoot a travel video about how cool this catholic church is in the heart of the Crescent City. ???? You HAVE to watch our latest video! ????
In the middle of Jackson Square in New Orleans, LA stands a huge catholic cathedral which is the oldest catholic church that is still in operation in the United States.
Some of the things that we saw while exploring this cathedral was the Old Baptistry, the Lobby of the cathedral and the gift shop. We checked out some of the statues around the church and all of the beautiful ornate artwork inside.
On the side of the St. Louis Cathedral is Pirate Alley which we walked down and I have some history about it. We also took a look at the back of the cathedral and they were renovating it for St. Anthony's Garden.
