Buffalo New York ~ St Louis Roman Catholic Church ~ Historic ~ My Old Photo
A religious sanctuary may be a sacred place, or a consecrated area of a church or temple around its tabernacle or altar.
The Gothic-styled church is located on the site of the first Roman Catholic church ever built in Buffalo. The church is laid out in a Latin-cross floor plan and features a 245 ft octagonal Medina sandstone steeple with a Seth Thomas clock. Above the steeple rests a 72 ft pierced spire; the tallest open-work spire ever built completely of stone (without reinforcement) in USA.
Inside the church is a 1903 Kimball Organ, which is located in the choir loft
