We did a morning walk to the Riverwalk and stopped by this gem on our way back. Lovely cathedral, beautiful stained glass windows, stunning sculpture, delightful architectural design.
MoreI lived in Reno for 10 years just passing on the the church was also used in the opening shots of the movie Sister Act with Woppi Goldburg .
MoreThis is a smallish, red-brick cathedral with gorgeous copper doors, a beautiful sanctuary mural, and vibrant stained-glass windows showing scenes from church history in Nevada. It's a short walk from both The Row and the Truckee River Walk. It's unclear if the church is open throughout the day, but it's a nice place for mass.
MoreI attended mass here when visiting Reno. My hotel was at The Row so it was a short and pleasant walk. Mass was at 7.30am but it was quite busy. The church is not huge but it has nice features including stained glass. Worth a look - though mass itself is well over an hour which I found to be a bit long.
MoreI've been in and around this church for years and it always impresses me. But now it is the heart of a very cool and lovely park district along the river with lots of cool eating and drinking places all around. So it is the anchor and heart of this vibrant area.
