Amarillo · Landmarks

The Sacred Heart Cathedral was a Catholic parish church and cathedral located in downtown Amarillo, Texas, serving as the cathedral of the Amarillo Diocese from 1927 until 1975. This church was originally built in 1916 and was an important faith landmark for the early Catholic community in the area, but it was officially deconsecrated and demolished in 1975. Today, there are no church buildings remaining at the original site, and visitors primarily come to learn about the history of Catholicism in Amarillo and the changes in the diocese.
