Historic Church, Reverent Mass

We attended the 11AM Sunday Mass and were inspired by the reverent liturgy, sacred music, and historic beauty of the building. A quieter spot than the cathedral in the French Quarter. Whether you are a regular church-goer or not, this is a beautiful house of...More

Latin mass option in New Orleans

A beautiful Catholic Church in the warehouse district, established in the 1830s. I found the aesthetic more appealing than the Cathedral Basilca. Really appreciated having the option of a Latin Mass during our visit to New Orleans as this is our worship preference back home...More

Beats the Cathedral

The outside of the building is unimposing due to location in CBD and the bland concrete exterior, but once inside this place of worship delivers. A wonderful place for quiet contemplation and reverence.

So Beautiful & Moving

We came to St. Patrick’s to see where my husband’s g g grandparents were married in the 1800s. I was overwhelmed by its beauty. Truly one of the most beautiful places I’ve been. It remains unchanged, except for some cleaning and refurbishing, since 1840. Ann...More

This is a very beautiful church built in the 1830’s. Old style cathedral with wonderful old stained glass windows. Convenient to the convention center and only a few blocks from WW II Museum.

This is a beautiful church near Lafayette Square. Upon entering, one is drawn to the tall ceiling architecture. The front of the church is dominated by 3 large paintings, with a magnificent dome on top. Unlike the Immaculate Conception Church (also in New Orleans) which...More

Central Business District

Compared to the more evocative monikers of some other
parts of New Orleans, the downtown’s humdrum title
might suggest that this area is all about business and
little else. But don’t let the bland name keep you
away from the Central Business District. The CBD
offers a wide range of fun things to do that would be
touted as exceptional in less jubilant corners of the
world. Bordered by the French Quarter, the Arts
