The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, the parish church of the Archdiocese of Mobile, combines Greek-revival aesthetics with religious imagery. Visit the cathedral to study the impressive architecture and take a moment for spiritual reflection within the tranquil interior. Construction began on the building in 1835, but progress was slow. Setbacks meant that it took 15 years in total to build and wasn’t consecrated until 1850\. Come here today and note the well-preserved nature of the building, the result of restoration work undertaken at the start of the 21st century. Gaze upward at the imposing exterior of the cathedral. A classical porch is supported by Doric columns and surrounded on both sides by red-brick towers. For additional details about the building, look for the information plaque just outside the entrance. Join one of the guided tours of the cathedral or explore it at your own pace. The restored interior points toward an altar, above which stands a statue of Christ. Inspect the colorful stained-glass windows and gilded columns that line the nave. Take a seat in one of the pews and soak up the peaceful atmosphere. The cathedral features a magnificent organ, which has more than 3,000 pipes. Surrounding it are paintings of Mary and various saints. The organ frequently accompanies choral performances from the local choir and other chamber choirs. Check to see if any performances are scheduled while you’re in town. Also Join local worshippers at Mass, which are held regularly. Check the cathedral’s website for Mass times. The cathedral is the ecclesiastical center of the city and is overseen by the Archbishop of Mobile, who leads many of the services. The Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception is in the center of Mobile, just a 15-minute walk away from the river and other attractions, such as the Carnival Museum and the Gulf Coast Exploreum Science Center. Find parking on the streets around the cathedral. ## Plan a trip to see Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception Price found within the past 48 hours.
