Basilica of Saint Mary Star of the Sea
This working Key West church rewards a quiet look at its varied architecture and stained glass. Plan around parish services and treat the interior as an active place of worship.
Why go
The church's Victorian and Renaissance Revival details distinguish it from Old Town's domestic buildings. Look from the textured exterior and rounded arches toward the stained glass behind the altar to understand how several design traditions meet in one sanctuary still used by its parish.
What to look for
The exterior mixes Victorian forms with rounded Renaissance Revival arches.
Stained glass behind the altar depicts the church's patroness.
Useful to know
Check the parish's visitation information before entering; services can change access.
