Built in a Spanish Renaissance Revival style, St. Cecilia's Cathedral began construction in 1905 and was consecrated in 1959. It is the only cathedral named after St. Cecilia. St. Cecilia, by preaching had converted four hundred persons.  She was arrested, and condemned to be suffocated in the baths. She was shut in for a night and a day, and the fires were heaped up, and made to glow and roar their utmost, but Cecilia did not even break out into perspiration through the heat. An executioner was sent to cut off her head. The man struck thrice without being able to sever the head from the trunk. He left her bleeding, and she lived three days. Crowds came to her and she preached to them or prayed. At the end of that period she died, and was buried by Pope Urban and his deacons.  St. Cecilia is the patroness of musicians and Church music because, as she was dying, she sang to God. It is also written that as the musicians played at her wedding she ‘sang in her heart to the Lord’.
