Beautiful church. The light show started at 9pm tonight. It was fun and interesting. Well worth the trip, and surrounded by pretty christmas lights and holiday bustle. A very festive place to be around Christmas. Church is beautiful during the day or night.

I attended the 5pm mass on a Sunday, which was in Spanish and English. The church is nice and clean. Members of the church were respectful and treated me like I was one of their members.

This is such a beautiful church. My wife and I were lucky enough to be married in the cathedral 16 years ago. We came back to the downtown area to celebrate our anniversary and enjoyed seeing the cathedral again. San Fernando is an amazing place to worship and celebrate the Lord.

San Fernando Cathedral, located on Main Plaza downtown by the brick red bexar county courthouse is a definite must see when visiting San Antonio. As you walk in, there is a good chance that you may be overwhelmed by its beauty. Its so hard to believe thar this place is the oldest in Texas and the second oldest. continuously functioning. church in America! it beginning started in 1731 with a group of missionaries from the canary islands. it was finished in 1749. it is listed in the list of historical places and alot has happened here. Santa Anna used it to begin the seige in 1738, and Jim Bowie was married herein 1849. There is a tomb at the.entrance that claims to contain the ashes of Bowie, Crocket and ... defenders of the Alamo. The location in which is resides also housed the original mercantile and marketplace of San Antonio. This is the actual geographic city center. north south east and west. are positioned from main plaza. In 1874 it became a diocese and 1926 an archdiocese. Hundreds of people stop by here to light a candle and pray. There are daily masses and confessions both in spanish and english. There is a beautiful ballroom and and meeting center for weddings and events as well. as a gift shop.if you'd lime to pick up a souvenir. During the summer months, there is a digital light show projected on the front facade of San Fernando telling it's unique story of its special place in San Antonio's history, called \the Saga\ free. its at night just before dark. Take your lawn chair, and if you go on Tuesday you get free parking downtown. Best place btwn w Commerce and Flores by the courthouse.

Along with the Alamo, this is one of the must see sights in San Antonio. Try to see it in the early morning light, and better yet, attend mass to see the inspiring interior. Buy some breakfast tacos at Poblanos in the cathedral courtyard and eat them at the tables in the plaza in front of the Cathedral. Come back in the evening to see the amazing laser light show projected onto the face of the cathedral.
