New Orleans French Quarters St Louis Catheral Jackson Square Prayer Candles with Brandon Perhaps the most recognized landmark in New Orleans, St. Louis Cathedral is the centerpiece of Jackson Square. This cathedral is unique as a focal point of an ultra-Catholic city, as its interior is somewhat sparsely decorated. But in spite of that, it does have a great deal of historical significance: Andrew Jackson supposedly laid down his sword on the altar in thanks for his victory in the battle of New Orleans. It is also the oldest continually operating cathedral in the US. Pope John Paul II also has made a visit here. The cathedral is open to visitors.
Magnificent St. Louis Cathedral presides over Jackson Square as the oldest Catholic cathedral in the United States. Established as a place of worship in 1716, the structure was completed on this site in 1727 then destroyed by fire in 1788.
