Founded in the early 1800s, Mount St. Mary's of the West is the third oldest Catholic seminary in the United States and the oldest Catholic seminary west of the Appalachian Mountains. The present day campus is made up of 76 acres surrounding an impressive granite stone building constructed in 1929. Inside the building you will find several rare works of art including six mosaics produced by the Vatican Studios in Rome, circa 1910. Today, the seminary continues its mission to prepare men for the Catholic priesthood and diaconte.
