The blue ceiling,

Known as the "Queen of the Painted Churches" on the Painted Churches of Texas tour, St. Mary's is grand and elaborate with intricately detailed paintings, a large host of statuary and glittering stained-glass windows. "The Germans have very ornate stained-glass windows, so there is more of a somber, majestic effect," says guide Dianna Zimmerman. A gold web connects the high ceiling centerline to interior columns, with fine scrollwork in between.
