The Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Newark, NJ, stands proudly atop the highest peak in the city, adjacent to Branch Brook Park. This French Gothic Cathedral spans 45,000 square feet, rivaling the size of London’s Westminster Abbey and surpassing both St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City in length and height.

Constructed over a 55-year period starting at the turn of the century, the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart was dedicated on October 19, 1954, as a testament to Jesus Christ's love for humanity. The title "Sacred Heart" symbolizes the presence of God's love reaching out to all, inviting visitors to experience prayer and deepen their faith, hope, and love within its sacred walls.

The General Theological Seminary is in the heart of Chelsea, but miles away, with very limited hours where you can stroll the grounds or sit and read a book. It is very tranquil and while you can’t enter the historic buildings, you can examine them from outside.
