About St. Mary's Basilica
In the downtown core of Halifax, capital of Nova Scotia, stands St. Mary's Cathedral Basilica, a Gothic Revival Catholic cathedral. The Archdiocese of Halifax-Yarmouth has its cathedral here, and no other Catholic church in the Archdiocese is larger. It was consecrated on October 19, 1899, and Pope Pius XII raised it to the status of Minor Basilica in a decree dated June 14, 1950.
Wood gave way to stone from 1820, in a design that took its inspiration from the London church of Saint Martin in the Fields. Patrick Keely's designs, from 1869, enlarged the church to its present size and gave it a Gothic Revival facade and spire, both built entirely of granite. The spire is 189 feet (58 m) tall, with Norman and Germanic elements besides the Gothic ones, and the church claims North America's tallest granite spire.
The tower holds 11 bells, played from a keyboard carillon. The Halifax Explosion of December 6, 1917 left the church heavily damaged, and the blast shattered all of its stained glass windows. Canada named it a National Historic Site in 1997.
