10 Churches & Cathedrals in Ohio That You Shouldn't Miss
If you are looking for an active place to stay with world-class attractions, Ohio’s major cities can satisfy any vacation desire. Each offers its own distinct flavor of fun, from professional sports – Bengals (Cincinnati), Cavaliers (Cleveland) and Indians (Cleveland again) – to museums, outdoor activities and more. One of the most famous is the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland. If football is your thing, don’t miss the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton. For the science-minded, visit the meat eaters at the Carnivore Conservation Center in the Wilds near Cambridge, dedicated to the breeding and scientific study of endangered mid-sized carnivores. Kids will also love Planet Snoopy in Sandusky or the Columbus Zoo’s Zoombezi Bay Waterpark and Jack’s Landing rides.

I visit this shrine at least once a year. Love the candlelit procession on Aug 14th, leading up to the Mass in the park. Very spiritual, refreshing the soul.

This is a very unique and historic Greek Revival cathedral. The stations of the cross are painted in the style of ancient Greek vases and there is lots of exquisite marble and dark wood throughout. The sanctuary mosaic is very striking and one of the largest in the country. Definitely take a few minutes to visit this beautiful church when in downtown Cincinnati.

Marietta, Ohio is one of the earlier Ohio settlements. It's actually named for Marie Antionette due to the French monarchy's support of the American Revolution.Skip the part by the freeway - about 1,000 yards away the actual, nice town begins. This attractive church became a basilica in 2013, although it is much older. In an odd way, it is both a smaller church and a very large one. The footprint isn't all that big, but it is immensely tall with massive stained glass windows and a huge dome. The church has been renovated and is very bright and attractive. The basilica is in a nice neighborhood. If this area were located in, say, Washington DC instead of Ohio, none of us could afford to live here. There are walking tours, both guided and self-guided, of Marietta. This impressive church is well worth a visit either way, and regardless of your religion. Incidentally, the Mound Cemetery, which includes Revolutionary War generals and a large mound, is just a few blocks away, and is very much worth a visit.

Wow! We attend a small Unitarian Universalist church, so this cathedral boggled our minds! We went for the annual Boar's Head Festival. This was ourfirst time. Took 3 kids, ages 9, 6, 2. It lasted about 90 minutes. There was a lot to watch. Only the 6 year old got antsy, and that was towards the end. The church is "T" shaped; try to sit as close to the intersection as possible, and you'll be able to see everything. The stained glass windows are amazing, although they required a bit of explaining to our UU kids. The "festival" is actually a pageant. The audience participates by singing. The program has all the words to the Christmas songs; we sang about 10. The show includes wonderful costumes on about 75 performers. They range from children to older adults. There were goats and camels, too! We will be attending next year also. Extra hints: get there about an hour early to get good seats, parking is limited also, the festival is free, but donations of any size are encouraged.
