The historic Christ Church Cathedral in Louisville, Kentucky, was founded on May 31, 1822. The original church building was completed in 1824; a new Romanesque Revival facade was added in 1870. The structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[1]

Christ Church became the cathedral of the Episcopal Diocese of Kentucky in May 1894.

The original Christ Church building, built in 1824, was "considered a marvel of architectural beauty for its time. Most of it stands as the oldest church building in Louisville. It is presently the principal part of the Nave of the enlarged Christ Church Cathedral."[2]
