Cathedral Basilica of Saint Peter and Paul Reviews

Beautiful church, we attended the Good Friday service and it was amazing.

Outstanding and inspirational experience! Absolutely beautiful inside and out, highly recommend a visit

A beautiful cathedral of Saints Paul and Peter, with an architecture of incredible beauty inside and outside, outside the cathedral are placed the statues of the homonymous Saints.

Gorgeous cathedral of the Roman Rite Archdiocese of Philadelphia.

Its a breath taking cathedral! Definitely worth sticking your head in if you're in the area.

They have the communion rail and the Stations of the Cross from St Boniface's Church that closed many years ago. It was my home church growing up. It is comforting to see these again.

This is a very beautiful and historic Roman Catholic Church in Philadelphia. I came here for mass when I was visiting Philadelphia, and I found the church to be absolutely stunning and definitely worth a visit. The priest here if you have a great homily as well. Most importantly, the church feels like it is air-conditioned and cool even when it is very hot outside.

Very Roman Catholic basilica. Forgive, but I am from the NYC area and this is not a St. Patrick's cathedral. That said, it is a beautiful cathedral, very traditional, excellent statuary in a style no longer to be found, and some exceptional stained glass that I could literally spend a day examining. If you appreciate classic religious style, this is the best you will find in Philly.

On special days such as December 24, there's only one place where I want to attend mass: the Cathedral. There's a group of musicians, a cantor and a choir, and the place is decorated nicely. Christmas Eve mass at the Cathedral is beautiful! Christ is born! Merry Christmas!

Clean looking crowd, and interesting sermon by priest.

The most beautiful place in Philadelphia. It will change your life!

Very beautifuly built. I loved the stonery. Is that even a word?

The best place to visit in Philadelphia would be and Basilica I'll Saint Peter and Paul you would love it

The Cheltenham Area Multifaith Council was honored to be the guests of the Cathedral Basilica of Sts. Peter & Paul in April. An outstanding tour guide, Jim, was assigned to our group. He was a wealth of information. Our interfaith group (most of whom were not Catholic) was enormously moved by the experience.

Its a beautiful church no matter where your eye go. The mother church of the archdiocese of Philadelphia

Loved this Church! Peace and serenity is what you will experience inside

This is the most amazing and incredible architecture in Philadelphia. When you enter the Basilica is like you are in the another world. Its breathtakingly beautiful. It soothe your sorrows and transport you to another place. It feels like you are in heaven. A place of refuge from all the hassles and noise outside the city. You have to go visit and spend some time learning and meditating. I was moved and came out feel like a new person. You can also have a confession too. A must see when you are in Philly.

Beautiful architecture, worth a visit for services or even a walk-by to see the exterior.

So incredibly beautiful and a blessed surprise for me and my two children. We were site seeing in Philly and wanted to stop in the basilica to offer intentions and stumbled upon a Latin Mass with a Capella singing. We felt like angels were singing for us.

I just saw her from outside
Beautiful place

Attending Sunday Mass at the Cathedral is a breath-taking experience of the majesty of our transcendent God and the beauty of the Catholic religion. You really feel that you have entered sacred space. Everyone involved in the Mass - priest, cantor, lectors and altar servers - are extremely reverent. And the music is just gorgeous!

Beautiful cathedral! Must visit and take part in a mass for the full experience

A stunning place of worship. Well worth stopping here.

A wonderful Cathedral, a place where people can to get paz and prayers.

A beautiful church in the middle of the city. When entering it's silent and peaceful. So worth the visit to pray. Just put your cameras down and cell phones and allow for the peace of Christ present to speak to your heart.

From the outside, the building was quite interesting, but unfortunately we did not enter

Beautiful church. Very large inside. Some repair work was being completed while there. Stain glass windows and side alters were worth viewing.

Historically the venue, American declaration of independence was signed, Spiritually, a dwelling of the Spirit of God, an architectural masterpiece, befitting of praise to God.

Beautiful Church inside and out. I love going into old churches and seeing how beautiful they truly are.

One of the beautiful places to see. I love the service there. I want to take my family there.

Very prayerful community, rich art work, and caring clergy.

Beautiful city, beautiful cathedral, quiet peace, captivating, place, neat, clean, MB beautiful gardines

Beautiful church and Shrine for St Katherine Drexel

Majestic and solemn space to prat. Look for the mosaics especially the right side alter.

St. Katherine Drexel is buried here. Beautiful mass.

Beautiful place, it is a must for everyone who likes to visit cathedral or church

Ornate, beautiful, vast church - smelled good, too.

This place is extremely special to me; while the catholic church and its teachings have been challenged by many, based on several horrible acts by some, NOT ALL priests and various clergy, it's that inner voice, the one that speaks to you, that speaks to me that keeps me a believer. All this stated, to be physically present in this place creates a centered peaceful place to reflect, pray and be grateful to be surrounded by so much beautiful architecture, art and history!

Beautiful church looks better in the inside with intricate design and wonderful statues of St Peter & St Paul.

It is a huge basilica .. A place of rest and prayer after intense walks to visit the city of Philadelphia.

Amazing architecture. One of the top Catholic Cathedrals I've visited in ther US

Most beautiful Catholic Church in many miles love going there and being there....Must see

Philadelphia's version of the Vatican it's beautiful

I found the church very beautiful. You can already see it from afar by its size. The huge doors make you want to take pictures. The inside is also worth the visit. Huge chandeliers, and a beautiful pipe organ.

What an amazing sight to see and able to attend Mass.
Very glad to be able to see this cathedral on our visit.

It's always amazing to see how peace and love bring all people from all backgrounds Under One Roof to celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ
