Overview
The centerpiece church of the Diocese of Sacramento, the majestic Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament, is a physical marker in the historical development of Sacramento.
The building has been changed, but unmoved over its 131-year history.
The triple-towered structure, topped by seven crosses and a large central dome, is the masterpiece of the Most Reverend Patrick Manogue (the first Bishop of the Diocese of Sacramento), who envisioned a church like the Englise de la Sainte-Trinite (Church of the Holy Trinity) in Paris near the seminary where he studied.
The historic structure has been updated and remodeled over the years, with the most significant renovation occurring in 2005 which brought back the best of the original design including the 115-foot high inner dome over the main altar.
The church contains many lovely statues,
