St Boniface Cathedral
The Chapelle des
Soeurs was built in 1924 and is a replica of the
Basilique Sainte Marie Majeure of Rome. It rises 52 feet
in height and is 175 ft long and 60 feet wide. The
ceiling is a fresco which represents the crowning of the
Virgin Mary. The
marble alter and the mosaic on the sanctuary come
from Venice and the statues of 26 saints which are often
appealed to by the congregation are arranged along the
sides of the structure.
The Pulpitum organ was installed in 1926
and 16 paintings throughout which cover the high walls,
represent the mysteries of the Rosary.
A secondary collection of 28 paintings
which were produced in 1930 and are located the space
between the walls of the chapel, represent Evangelical
scenes.
Along the path of the cross stations are
works of SR. Jérôme-de-la-Croix.
