The Cathedral itself is super beautiful inside and out, we went to attend a mass and it was great. The only problem is the parking, we park like 2 blocks away but still not a big deal. Will surely come back sometime soon.
The Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart, the fifth-largest cathedral in North America. Catholic mass is offered daily and three times on Sunday in English and in Spanish. The Cathedral Basilica is built on the highest peak in Newark next to Branch Brook Park.
It is a magnificent church built in a splendid French Gothic style and you immediately feel a sense of awe when you walk in. The striking interior is filled with beautiful sculptures, carvings, mosaics, with a big vaulted ceiling, great organ and stained glass.
The staff is very welcoming. Definitely worth a visit!

I really enjoyed the Cathedral Basilica. The map provided for the self-guided tour was easy to follow and informative. The stained glass windows and all of the chapels were the highlights for me. It's a spectacular place!
Beautiful Cathedral in the heart of Newark. Built from 1899 in the Frech Gothic Revival, has 3 massese a day, in English and Spanish. It is overlooked by most due to its location. The area is absolutely safe.
Beautiful cathedral, truly a magnificent construction, it shows contemporary buildings have no chance competing with this type of art.
God's house should be kept beautiful.

Great memories here! Truly a masterpiece with a lot of history. Recommend to visit, you can walk in through the side door and just admire the architectural beauty
We love shooting weddings at the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart. Our team is there often and are very aware of the proper procedures they put forth for photography and video. Simply amazing.
My visit here was awe inspiring. The Cathedral is magnificent.
Very peaceful very beautiful very soothing. It looked amazing from outside unfortunately as some private events were going on we were not allowed 🚫 to go inside May be next time. Timings say church ⛪️ is open Monday to Sunday 9 am to 5 pm. The monument is a architectural brilliance. It is a solid rock 🪨 structure with some use of glass. The door 🚪 specifically is so beautifully crafted (see pics to believe my words) . Magnificent garden and lake are infront of it. Church looks very grand just at the side of busy Jersey street. Limited parking is also available. Very nice temple, may god bless us all. See pics for more details.Thanks 🙏 😊
Resembling the great cathedral at Rheims, the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart located in Newark is designed in the magnificent French Gothic. It’s the fifth largest in North America with the second largest rose window in United States which my partner and I came this morning as tour guides. Upon entering, one immediately feel a sense of awe when you walk in with the beautiful sculptures, carvings, mosaics, and stained glass windows. Before leaving the area, we were able to glimpse the beginning buds of the cherry blossoms. Whether you are Catholic, religious or not, the amazing architecture is to be admired which we can recommend.
I really want to share my experience. I went to this Basilica on a Sunday morning. After the mass, with all my friends we received the most amazing tour around the Basilica with a great man, David. I don't know anybody who knows more saints names and history about them than David. He explained each statute, every single detail inside the Basilica structure, inside and outside. He was awesome and did a wonderful job. I thank David for taking his time and giving us such an amazing tour.
The architecture is absolutely stunning, the artwork and the craftsmanship is so very gorgeous inside. A must visit if you are anywhere nearby Jersey city. Looks like this place is super famous for the photo shoots. Roadside parking is available and I think they’ve got additional parking lots nearby. It’s a must visit, add this amazing place to your itinerary if you’re visiting Jersey city. Added some of my captures from this place below……
This cathedral is just a masterpiece in itself. The architecture is stunning and the artwork/craftsmanship is so beautiful inside and out. This is definitely a must visit when you're near the area!
A wonderful cathedral for visitors to the East coast. The choir is clearly one of the best I've ever heard.
