Interesting to see. The top floor provides a great view of the surrounding area. Numerous rooms with themes.

I have lived in the Pittsburgh area my whole life and never knew what I was missing. I always admired the outside of the building but never ventured inside to explore it until last year. Wow, what a surprise. I went in the summer when the students were gone and it was amazing. When it is dark and silent you... More

I suggested visiting this building so that we could see the architecture but had never been inside. There are rooms dedicated to about 2 dozen countries. It seemed hokey at first but the rooms were really interesting. We paid for the audio tour ($4/adult). It was a fun way to spend some time on campus. You'll see the first floor,... More

It is worth taking a walk through this. The students study in a huge hall with no steel beam support. There are many different rooms with everything in them from a specific country. Unfortunately they were not open the day we went.

Both the main level and the highest floor are a must see. The main level makes you feel like you're at Hogwarts and the views from the 35th floor are spectacular!

A fantastic piece of architecture, highly recommend. Gothic revival, immensely vast, with many classrooms dedicated to specific nationalities. Top floor allows views of Pittsburgh. Not enough time to take a tour, but would if I had the chance. With dark hallways and never-ending corridors, t is out of a medieval story.

We rode the elevators up to the 36th floor. Great views. Walked around the bottom floor to peak in the rooms. During the week the students were everywhere. Great way to study!

I went to school at Pitt, so the Cathedral of Learning was a prominent memory for me. I try to stop back in whenever in Pittsburgh. The rooms are really neat (and so is the history as to how the cultural/international classrooms were built). The view is amazing from the upper floors (and free!). A great gem in Oakland :)

Not really much to do here, but the building itself is gorgeous and everybody in the area should go to the top at some point.
