This building is the fifth largest cathedral in North America, roughly the size of Westminster Abbey, stunningly beautiful, inside and out. It is 365 feet long and 161 feet wide. The Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart is the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Newark. It is located at 89 Ridge Street in the Lower Broadway neighborhood of Newark, New Jersey. We were there on a silent quiet day, got the street side parking. We had recently come from the Europe trip and after seeing this, we are like \ this church can compete with any famous church in Europe\ and it was in the backyard of our county and we were not aware of this. The cavernous interior is very well maintained and is spotlessly clean. The architecture, the carved wood, the Chandeliers, the stained glass windows, the marble Carvings, the Statues, ornate Doors, and the 14 Mosaics depicting the Stations of the Cross, were all so magnificent that it made our jaws drop. The Altar made of Italian Marble is stunning. It has the largest Pipe Organ which includes 9000 pipes, 54 stops, and is playable from two consoles. Perfect and exact example of French Gothic architecture in the Western Hemisphere. The Cathedral Basilica is well worth a visit.

Each time you enter this cathedral feels like the first. It's stunning and beautiful and mystical. You can wander around and discover the huge interior and let your soul ascend. Yet going there for mass or just to sit also feels warm and intimate. Its friendly and everyone feels at their best. The purpose of a cathedral is to soar and let in the light and be a total experience of soul and church and christ consciousness. We love visiting the cathedral and surroundings. It's inspiring and all about community...

What can I say... it's a beautiful place of worship! Social distancing is enforced, but we all manage. The choir is wonderful!

Second time I'd ever been to the Cathedral in my life. I've driven by it many more times than that, though and I am always marvelling at how beautiful it is! Definitely a place to stop at whether you're religious or not. Architecturally speaking, it's gorgeous! There is so much detail in everything here, I could have spent hours photographing it! Don't know much about the masses that are held there, but I'd love to go back just to see the sun come in through the stained glass windows!
