Lonely Planet review for Cathedral of the Holy Cross

When this neo-Gothic cathedral was built in 1875, it was America’s largest Catholic cathedral, as big as Westminster Abbey. It serves as the main cathedral for the archdiocese of Boston and the seat of the archbishop. The exquisite rose window features King David playing his harp, while the rest of the cross-shaped building is peppered with stained-glass windows and traditional church art.
