A&O Meetup: Cathedral of St. Paul | Minnesota

ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
By Ernest Disney-Britton

MINNESOTA---The Cathedral of Saint Paul is set dramatically on a hill overlooking the city of Saint Paul, Minnesota. The Beaux Arts architecture, is inspired by the churches and cathedrals of France, but what you notice from miles away is the dome. The dome is a 120-foot-wide made of curved steel beams, covered with a clay tile surface and overlaid with copper. A copper-clad lantern, approximately 30 feet tall, sits on top of the dome. It's one of the most dramatic of God's Art Museums in the USA.
