In New York City, the Basilica of St. Patrick’s Old Cathedral is one of the best examples of an American catacomb. Built between 1809 and 1815 in the Gothic-Revival style, there are 35 family crypts and five vaults for clerics. The tombs belong to New York’s best-known families, including captains of industry, bankers, politicians, and lawyers. VIP guided tours of the cathedral and catacombs are available.
