Archbishop Lamy commissioned this French Romanesque cathedral in 1869, and it took more than 15 years to complete. It is still maintained by the archdiocese of Santa Fe. This long-standing landmark houses many religious relics, including the chalice used by Lamy and the oldest Madonna in the United States. The exquisite stained glass windows of the St. Francis Cathedral were created in France, then transported to Santa Fe via ship and covered wagon. Admission is free.
