  Our high school class of 1974 attended mass here for our annual Christmas reunion. This is a beautiful basilica built in 1925; it is one of the gems of San Antonio. You get a sense of spirituality...  more »

  ABSOLUTELY amazing. Its beautiful and is a blessing to experience. I was fortunate to have gone with my family from Spring, TX when visiting over the summer from New Hampshire. I loved the painting downstairs, it's a must see. I have posted some pictures of us in front of the painting. Also, there's a nice little giftshop next door that I got some fantastic gifts to bring home for family.

  Love visiting this beautiful historic church! I feel I am in another country when I walk inside and take in the wonderful architecture. The staff are nice and friendly. I have stopped by for Mass or just to pray on any given day. Either way, the experience is very positive spiritually. Tip, they also have a basement area(still nicely decorated altar)where you can pray.
