Fun Facts

Before becoming the cathedral of the Archdiocese of Detroit in 1938, it served as a pro-cathedral for several years.

The design features pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses, characteristic of the English Gothic architectural style.

It contains a relic of St. Therese of Lisieux, a beloved saint known as 'The Little Flower.'

In 2003, the cathedral was extensively renovated to restore its original beauty and update its facilities.

The organ, built by the renowned Casavant Frères, is considered one of the finest in the region.

The cathedral's construction was supported by prominent figures from the automotive industry, reflecting the city's industrial heritage.
