Archdiocese of Chicago is home to three basilicas
Chicago-area pilgrims are lucky because they can visit not one, but three basilicas in their own backyards.
A side altar in St. Hyacinth Basilica is shown in this file photo. To the left is the “ombrolino” or “capaneum,” a partially opened umbrella of red and yellow silk, given to basilicas by the pope as a sign of their special designation. (Chicago Catholic/Karen Callaway)
The interior of Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica as seen in this 2008 file photo. At one point, the church’s novena to Our Lady of Sorrows was so popular that staff had to schedule 38 novena services every Friday to accommodate the more than 70,000 people who attended each week. (Karen Callaway/Chicago Catholic)
Right, the sanctuary inside Queen of All Saints Basilica, 6280 N. Sauganash Ave., is pictured in this file photo. (Karen Callaway/Chicago Catholic)
