About

Gothic Revival Architecture

St. Joseph Cathedral is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Columbus. Completed in 1878, the cathedral is a stunning example of Gothic Revival architecture, characterized by its ashlar stone exterior, pointed arches, and stained glass windows, although its planned spires were never fully completed.

Spiritual Center

Located on East Broad Street in downtown Columbus, the cathedral serves as a spiritual anchor for the Catholic community. It hosts major diocesan liturgies and events, and its interior features a beautiful altar and a pipe organ, contributing to its reputation as a place of worship and sacred music.
