Lonely Planet review

One of the world's largest and finest examples of Gothic revival architecture, St Patrick's Cathedral was designed by William Wardell. Building began in 1863 and continued in stages until the spires were added in 1939. The imposing bluestone exterior and grounds are but a preview to its contents: inside are several tonnes of bells, an organ with 4500 pipes, ornate stained-glass windows and the remains of former archbishops.
