About the Event

Explore the 1924 Norman Gothic church that incorporates masterful woodworking of early 20th century German artisans. Step inside architect Henry Schlacks 1927 French Gothic masterpiece- with it's undeniable Irish influence and broad expanse of historic events reflecting through thousands of pieces of carefully placed colored glass.
