Museum From Home: Chapel of St. Ambrose

The Chapel of St. Ambrose is a small, but unique space in the Cathedral with a rich architectural and decorative history. One of the seven smaller intimate Chapels located in the East end of the Cathedral, the Chapel of St. Ambrose is the only one executed in the Neo-Renaissance style. Join Cathedral educator Nancy Tramontana on an in-depth tour of this beautiful little area.

While the Chapels of the Tongues are closed for the time being, visitors can safely see each of them through the ornate and historical grillwork that leads to each. The Cathedral has a range of rich and varied architectural details which makes it one of America’s great architectural masterpieces.
