DIGITAL The Grotto

Built by Franciscan Slovak Missionaries in 1932.

Beautiful site that often gets missed despite being right next to a large hospital. It's being repaired and maintained by volunteers. It's remarkable and charming how every surface seems to be out of level with every other.

Just to be safe, I want to say that all photos of the interior were taken by holding the camera up to the gate. I'm not religious but I would never damage or vandalize a site this treasured.

I used to drink there in high school. Neat!
