A majestic tower in Pittsburgh that defines the city. It stands tall and magnificent in its glory.

In fact, this place has nothing to do with the church, or we can only say that its appearance is like an ancient European cathedral. This is a teaching building, but it is very magnificent and beautiful, and you can go in and take a look inside.

Stunning grounds and an incredible selection to view. Easily one of my favourite places to visit in Pittsburgh. The gift shop offers a lot, and the food and drinks selection in the cafe were great, even with special dietary requirements.
