Basilica of Ste. Anne de Detroit

There was a wedding in full swing at the Basilica of Saint Anne of Detroit when we were there. Other than that place was deserted. It is a hauntingly, beautiful church, the well-worn floors, frescoed walls and ceilings, and the rich dappled kaleidoscope light from the stained glass windows bathing it all. It seems to be undergoing a restoration clearly well needed. If you love ancient architecture, this is a must stop.

Amazing old church located in southwest Detroit (Est. 1701). The inside is breathtakingly beautiful. What a treasure for the city of Detroit. Unfortunately, they don't allow walk-ins. To see it you either need to attend mass or be part of a pre-approved tour. If you're fortunate enough to see the inside prepare to be amazed.

Absolutely gorgeous church!!! Luv the old architecture!! Oldest Catholic church in Detroit!!
