What You Will Do
Washington National Cathedral stands on a hilltop overlooking the National Capitol, like a chunk of medieval European and Gothic architectural history an American capital couldn't possibly own, and is one of the great architectural marvels of the city.
A 90-minute tour of the cathedral's interior with author and guide, Andy Bittner, is to be immersed in what just might be the most intense concentration of 20th-century handcraft on the planet.
- Experience the most amazing collections of 20th-century stained glass, carved stone, and needlepoint anywhere on earth
- See the famous Darth Vader grotesque... See it for yourself
- Enjoy amazing views of the city and surrounding region from the cathedral's Pilgrim Observation Gallery
Guests may stay in the Cathedral after the tour for as long as they like.
