Cathedral Basilica of Saint Peter and Paul Reviews

It's a beautiful cathedral a must see if you're here in Philadelphia.

Located in Logan square, this is one cathedral which you should not miss during a day trip. Both inside and outside are well maintained. It is probably one of the must visit in Philadelphia center city.

I had the opportunity to visit the cathedral while visiting Philadelphia, and loved the gorgeous interior. It doesn't look terribly impressive from the outside, but if you have an interest in church architecture, you'll have a lot to see and enjoy on the inside.

Beautiful and peaceful...except the cashier in the gift shop has the nastiest attitude

Fantastic Cathedral! Bring a smartphone and use headphones for a great virtual tour.
Celebrated feast of the Assumption here today. Beautiful Liturgy and Music. No insense :(

My daughter & son in-law were married in the cathedral basilica 8 years ago in a devout ceremony. Today they are happily married with three beautiful children and live in beautiful home near family and friends.

A beautiful piece of Catholic architecture. It is the heart of Catholic Philadelphia, so important that The Parkway was re-routed around it.

It's just perfect from outside to every single detail on it.

Most beautiful church and miss Holland a very helpful guide

LOVED this place. Recommend visiting when in area. Worth a trip into city. We came in from suburbs. Great restaurants in area too

A Beautiful experience! Praise the Lord! The Rector exemplifies Christ! + Mass was truly an encounter with Christ! +

Simply wonderful. Regardless of belief, it is worth a visit to contemplate at least the wonderful architecture. Sensational.

Stunningly beautiful basilica. Daily masses available during morning and afternoon and Sunday masses offered throughout the day.

A beautiful Roman Catholic church conveniently located at 17th and Race right off the parkway.

Beautiful cathedral, with amazing stained glass. A wonderful guide even showed us the shrine of Katherine Drexel.

It's a beautiful Church, Cathedral, Basilica. It inspires wonder to look upon it... However until the Holy See CLEANS UP IT'S ACT, and EXPELS FRACIS, the coopted Globalist Jesuit; I WILL NOT BE RETURNING! I cannot pray and worship knowing that it is likely one of the Clergy in there is guilty of unspeakable atrocities!

I went to see Saint Katherine Drexel's new resting place. This cathedral is a must see. Beautiful.

It is the high holy and worship place for the archdiocese where I live

Attending the Cultural Heritage Mass, with Archbishop Charles Chaput, as Celebrant and Homilist.

A beautiful monument to architecture and art. This Basilica is stunning, especially when you realize construction started before the civil war!!! This is the only Basilica in Corinthian style you will find this side of the ocean. It's a must see whether you are on "team Jesus" or not!!

Beautiful city, different light years from NY. The center is rich in museums and cathedrals, tall buildings but also very green. The real night-time entertainment area is a bit the outskirts where the buildings disappear and are replaced by a neighborhood with low and thick buildings. Here you will find the real places for a drink, a concert, to make friends too. The city is not dangerous but you must always take everything with pliers. About an hour from the center, you find yourself immersed in greenery through parks and being in an expanse of houses 500 square meters apart. one from the other. The city is not far from the great apples. A fast train safely takes you to a Broadway show and back in the day. Pleasant visit.

Great energy. Friendly atmosphere. Inspiring messages. My Friend Patty became a Catholic today!!!

Basilica for the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. If you are here for Christmas, the Midnight Mass is well worth attending.

Its so big and beautiful. I lost count of how many times I've been there. From the moment I walk in I always feel peace. I love going there.

Panoramic view of Cathedral was beautiful.Peace be with us.

Pleasant and impressive cathedral of Catholic worship in the center of Philadelphia between the old part of the city and the avenues leading to the museum area with the famous Rocky Balbo staircase. Tall interior, quite deep nave. Interesting

Did you know there was a 19th century basilica in Philadelphia? Gorgeous pipe organ and stained glass. We heard the end of mass and it was beautiful. The upkeep inside and outside was pristine.

This Church made me feel like I was a slave in the 1800's. They have a large familybpic of young Jesus who is wblhite with his white parents. They have too idols standing (statues) they usa the Catholic Bible and there religion is called Catholicism. I grew up Baptist and use Holy Bible like Lutheran, PENTECOSTAL, Methodist, Church of God In Christ our religion is called Christianity we DON'T have standing idols of peoplle (statues) the Catholics pray to 10,000 Catholic DEAD Catholic Saints.. We Christians pray and talk to Jesus by ourselves or call another aloeve saint and tell them we need for them to PRAY eith us
If 2 or 3 (alive persons are together..a dead human stays asleep until the last trumpet sounds..Catholic pp act like Jesus motheris more powerfil than him..NOT..they say that she is there Perfect Perfect Virgin Mother..Mother Mary in Luke 1:47 praises God and calls him her lord and SAVIOR..Perfectual also means deathless Mary had Baby Kesus while she was a teenager amd Mary wasike the rest of us she was borm into SPiN. Mary had 2 Baltisms. Water and she was baptize with the Holy Ghost and FIRE...The Catholics talk to dead saints like St. Agatha. zKesus by his Joly Spirit led meto the library to finda Book Called the Book of 5,000 Spells the Encyclopedia of Witchcraft the Spirit of the Living HodNot the Spirit of. The Harr Family...it is a Book that has an A-Z contents for different witches and th spells they use on people.

I found a Catholic saint callled Saint her name is: St. AGATHA she can HEAL Breast Cancer..this is a make BELIEVE story that the Catholics learn in Catholic School. They dont do their COMMUION like other REAL christians do.. who Believe JESUS is GOD...son...tjeu think objects WINE..Jesus Blood and Crackers..Jesus Nody Do turn into the REAL Jesus not us Christians...it is a representation of what Christ accomplished on that Bloody CROSS..at eat anS d drink in remembrance of our SAVIOR. Theface to face to be Catholics believe in doing GOOD works after they die must go to a place callJEasUed Purgatory and DO good works then when the catholic is purified of SIN they areready to meet GOD face to face..WHATIRANG....very weird to most BORN AGAIN Believers our Holy Bible does not yeach us that it is done ONLY in THE (STRANGE)...WHAT? The BLOOD of JESUS cleanses a person or ALLs SIN if they REPENT (CATHOLIC CHURCH...I LIVE N PHILADELPHIA AND MY RESEARCH ABOUT THE POPE AND His teachifAngs the
Catholics that AN INFANT does become BORN AGAIN WHILE being BAPTIZE a week old or 1 month

Bible KJV that my mother's church used in 1960's First Bapatist of Paschall, Wayland Memorial Baptist Church (I was 12 years old Pastor Paul I feel in love with Jesus I still am over 45 years now back in the 60's) People's Baptist Church, Hickmam Temple, 1st Corinthian Church, (Churches in PHILADELPHIA) Tabernacle Baptist Church (Burlington, NJ), Saron Baptist Church 3955 Conshohocken Avenue, Bala Cywyn, Pa, Delieverkance Evangelistic Church (Philadelphia) TD Jakes, Cre Corollary, Dr. Charles Stanley Minisries, Pastor Cho largest Church in rthe World 800,00 a week in Korea, Pastor Joseph Prince, Evangelist Joyce Meyers, Pastor. Dr. Michael Youself (California), Pastor John Hagee excellent (on Utube)...NONE of these churces are Baptist!

Not all are mega churches...but

Beautiful, I came in at a Saturday morning, people were singing in the cathedral, the whole experience was wondering.

I'm Catholic and I and my wife we love to visit different church's and the cathedral of Saint Peter and Saint Paul is amazing church with rich history .

It was my first time there visiting It was beautiful and I had a great time in my prayer

A miracle happened to me at the Saints Peter and Paul Cathedral in 1980. I overstayed my student visa and became an illegal immigrant. I went through 3 deportation hearings using 3 different lawyers over a 5-year period from 1977 to 1982. I was broke. I went into debt to pay my legal fees. I could not work. One day, as I was walking aimlessly and anxiously in Center City, Philadelphia, I found myself next to this Cathedral. I suddenly realized that there was one final thing I could do to seek help -- pray to God. I went in and I started praying to Saint John Neumann to give me guidance. After that, I prayed to God. I told God that I would help pull China and America closer if He could help me get a "green card." My prayers calmed me down. I felt at peace and emboldened to continue to face my immigration tormentors in what looked like a hopeless, losing legal case. I continued to send 500 more personally signed letters to CEOs to offer myself to help them open the China market. One letter landed on the desk of a CEO in New York, who had just returned to America having had a bad time negotiating with the Chinese government. He told the Senior Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing to interview me. They hired me. With my third lawyer, who cared about me, my future company and I together proved to the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and to the U.S. Labor Department that I could do a job that no other American citizen could do. We had to advertise the position in The New York Times. We won the case. On my birthday in Hong Kong in the summer of 1982, to which I must first return in order to re-enter the U.S. legally, the U.S. Consulate gave me my "green card." The lady officer said to me with a big smile: "Happy birthday, James." I became a citizen in 1987. Ever since my prayers at the Cathedral Basilica, I have helped more than 100 U.S. companies large and small to sell American-made products and services to China and Asia. I helped American companies generate new revenues through export sales. To me, a miracle came true. My third and good lawyer said to me: "James, if I can help you win your case, I can win any case." She was right. But I believe that God, and Saint Neumann, granted me the Grace I needed to be lucky and to be accepted by America. I am forever grateful.

Beautiful church, the grandure and sheer enormity of the statues inside creates a truly awe inspiring experience. Worth the visit for sure!

Well, It was Majestic!!! The Choir sounded like Angels. Beautiful windows The Palm Sunday Mass
It was quite moving
