Title	St. Cecilia's Cathedral
Description	St. Cecilia's Cathedral is the mother church for the Catholic Archdiocese of Omaha. Thomas Roger Kimball designed the building. He chose the Spanish-Renaissance style of architecture. The building was completed in 1916. It is the tenth largest cathedral in the United States and can seat 1000 people. The cathedral has over 50 stained glass windows, an altar made of marble from Italy, and many wood and bronze carvings. There is a gallery of Spanish art work behind the altar. St. Cecilia's is also the home of the Cathedral Arts Project which hosts the Omaha Symphony and other musical groups. The concerts are free to the public. Each year in January the Cathedral Flower Festival is held there too.
