Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption (St. Mary's Cathedral)

Completed in 1971, the Cathedral of Saint Mary of the Assumption is the seat of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of San Francisco and a major location for Catholic liturgical ritual in the city. The cathedral hosts regular Masses, ordinations, funerals, and major Holy Day services for the archdiocese. Its modernist building and central role make it a frequent site for diocesan ceremonies and civic-religious rites.
