| The history of St. Peter’s Cathedral goes back to 1834 with the opening of St. Lawrence Church located on what is now the front lawn of St. Peter’s Cathedral. After a devastating fire and rebuild, St. Lawrence Church was re-established and by 1856 the Parish had become known as St. Peter’s. Among the cathedral's most notable features are its massive bell towers, high transepts, imposing sanctuary and fine rose window made in Innsbruck, Austria. |
