Immaculate Heart of Mary Church (Pittsburgh)
Pittsburgh, United States · built 1905
Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Pittsburgh, referred to in Polish as Kościół Matki Boskiej, is a historic church of the Catholic Diocese of Pittsburgh. Located on Polish Hill in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, it is a prime example of the so-called 'Polish Cathedral' style of churches in both its opulence and grand scale. The church was designated a historic landmark by the Pittsburgh History and Landmarks Foundation in 1970. Immaculate Heart of Mary remains an active parish church in the Diocese of Pittsburgh as of 2023. In 2019 it was reorganized as a personal (non-territorial) parish within the Shrines of Pittsburgh, a grouping of six churches with unique histories which the diocese hoped to promote as pilgrimage and visitor destinations.
