The Fordham University Church, a Catholic (Jesuit) church located at Fordham University in the Bronx, New York City, was originally built in 1845 as a seminary chapel. It became part of the university in 1859 and serves as the central place of worship for the campus ministry. The church features historical elements such as the old altar from St. Patrick's Cathedral and stained glass windows gifted by King Louis Philippe I of France, showcasing the artistry of the Gothic Revival. Visitors can also explore the adjacent Fordham University Cemetery, which holds the remains of early Jesuits and seminarians. The church is surrounded by several chapels across the university's campuses, making it a significant spiritual hub for students and the community.
