Cake 152- Basilica of Saint Louis

Found November 23, 2014

The rain was really starting to come down when we got this one.  It took us a while to realize it was across the street and with people coming out of church, we didn't try to get across to get a close up picture, so this will have to suffice.


The Basilica of Saint Louis, King of France is also known as the Old Cathedral.  It is the oldest cathedral west of the Mississippi, constructed in 1834.  It is named at King Louis IX, also the namesake for the city.  This is the only building that was retained when the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial was built.
