The cathedral was built under the direction of Lawrence Scanlan, the first bishop of Salt Lake City, who dedicated it to St. Mary Magdalene.[2] It was designed by architects Carl M. Neuhausen and Bernard O. Mecklenburg. The exterior is predominantly a Neo-Romanesque design, while the inside displays more Neo-Gothic details. Construction began in 1900 and was completed in 1909. It was dedicated by James Cardinal Gibbons, Archbishop of Baltimore.
It is theorized that Bishop Scanlan chose Mary Magdalene as the patron saint of the Diocese of Salt Lake because her feast day is on July 22, two days before Pioneer Day, a celebration commemorating the arrival of the Mormon pioneers in Salt Lake Valley, so that Catholics would have something to celebrate alongside the region's dominant faith.[3]
The interior of the cathedral was created under the direction of Joseph S. Glass, the second bishop of Salt Lake. Bishop Glass enlisted John Theodore Comes, one of the preeminent architects in the country, to decorate the interior of the cathedral. His plans for the interior were largely based upon the Spanish Gothic style. The colorful murals and polychrome were added at this time, as were the ornate shrines. In 1916, Bishop Glass also changed the name of the cathedral to the French spelling after visiting her purported tomb.[2]
In the 1970s, the exterior of the building was restored, and between 1991 and 1993, the interior of the cathedral was renovated and restored under Bishop William K. Weigand. This included not only the removal of dust and dirt and restoration of the interior but also changes to the liturgical elements of the cathedral to bring them into conformity with certain widespread changes in liturgical practice that developed after the Second Vatican Council.
This included constructing a new altar, moving the cathedra, creating a separate chapel for the Blessed Sacrament, and adding an ample baptismal font. The Blessed Sacrament Chapel also contains the tomb of Bishop Scanlan.[4] Resting atop the tomb is a case containing a small relic of Saint Mary Magdalene. The cathedral in Salt Lake City and the Basilica of Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume in France are the only cathedrals in the world holding first-class relics of the saint and are named in her honor.[5] The major restoration of the interior of the cathedral was accomplished through the vision of Monsignor M. Francis Mannion.[6]
The cathedral is home to the only co-educational Catholic Choir School in the United States. The Madeleine Choir School, established in 1996, now serves over 400 students in Pre-Kindergarten through Grade Eight.[7] The Cathedral Choir has recorded several CDs and routinely tours both nationally and internationally. In addition to singing daily services at the Cathedral of the Madeleine, choristers have sung at St. Peter's Basilica (Vatican City), Notre Dame de Paris (France), and in churches across the United States of America, Spain, Italy, France, Belgium, and Germany, among other places.[8]
Composer Amédée Tremblay notably served as the church's organist from 1920 to 1925.[9]
El 29 de noviembre de 1483 un sacerdote y abogado nacido en Estrasburgo accedía al cargo de Maestro de Ceremonias del papado en Roma, tras haber comprado el puesto por unos 450 ducados. Se llamaba Johann Burchard y hasta su muerte en 1506 serviría en ese cargo a cinco pontífices.
Unos pocos años antes, en 1503, Burchard se hizo construir un palacio, que todavía sigue en pie en la actual Vía del Sudario (en el número 44) con el nombre de Casa del Burcardo, con una torre anexa.
La torre, junto con el lugar de nacimiento de Burchard, acabaron por dan nombre al lugar donde se alzaban: Torre Argentina. Argentina porque el nombre latino de Estrasburgo era Argentoratum. Lo que vendría a significar algo así como la torre del estrasburgués.

En 1927 las autoridades romanas decidieron demoler buena parte de las construcciones de Torre Argentina (entre ellas la torre de Burchard) para crear una gran plaza, la actual Largo di Torre Argentina, situada en el antiguo Campo de Marte en el camino entre el Panteón y el Foro.
Durante las obras aparecieron la cabeza y los brazos de una estatua de proporciones colosales, lo que llevó a realizar excavaciones arqueológicas que, como suele ser habitual en la capital italiana, encontraron más de lo que se esperaba hallar: toda una área sacra con restos de cuatro templos de época romana republicana, además del Teatro de Pompeyo.
El teatro fue el primero permanente construido en Roma (y el primer edificio totalmente de mármol), en el año 55 a.C., gracias a una argucia de Pompeyo.
Como estaba prohibido levantar teatros permanentes en la ciudad hizo construir en lo alto de la cávea un templo dedicado a Venus Victrix, argumentando que la propia cávea no era más que una escalinata para acceder al templo.
Tenía 150 metros de diámetro y capacidad para más de 17.000 espectadores. Tras la escena había un enorme pórtico de 180 por 135 metros que rodeaba un jardín, y en el extremo de este pórtico opuesto al teatro se ubicaba la Curia de Pompeyo.
Una curia era una reunión para discutir asuntos públicos, y en época republicana servía también para designar el edificio donde se reunía el Senado, generalmente la Curia Hostilia situada en el Foro.
Pero había otras, como la mencionada de Pompeyo, precisamente el lugar donde en marzo del año 44 a.C. se estaba reuniendo el Senado.
Allí se dirigió Julio César el día 15 de ese mes para encontrar la muerte a manos de un grupo de senadores, como cuentan Plutarco y Suetonio.
Al entrar César se levantó el Senado; pero luego que se sentó, aquellos le rodearon en tropel, enviando delante a Tulio Cimbro, con pretexto de pedirle por un hermano desterrado; todos intercedían con él, tomando a César las manos y besándole en el pecho y la cabeza. Al principio desechó sus súplicas; pero viendo que no desistían, se levantó con enfado, y entonces Tulio retiró con entrambas manos la toga de los hombros, y Casca fue el primero, porque se hallaba a la espalda, que, desenvainando el puñal, le dio una herida poco profunda en el hombro. Echóle mano César a la empuñadura y, dando un grito, le dijo en lengua latina: “Malvado Casca, ¿qué haces?” Y éste, llamando a su hermano, le pedía en griego que le socorriese. Herido ya de muchos, miró en rededor, queriendo apartarlos; pero cuando vio que Bruto alzaba el puñal contra él, soltó la mano de que tenía asido a Casca, y cubriéndose la cabeza con la toga, entregó el cuerpo a los golpes. Hiriéronle sin compasión, empleándose contra su persona muchos puñales, con los que se lastimaron unos a otros, tanto que Bruto recibió una herida en una mano, queriendo concurrir a aquella muerte, y todos se mancharon de sangre (Plutarco, Vidas Paralelas: Bruto)
Esta curia, según afirman Suetonio y otros autores, fue tapiada posteriormente como lugar nefasto. Posiblemente a lo que se refieren es a la estructura de hormigón de tres metros de ancho por dos de alto con que Augusto mandó cubrir el lugar para señalarlo. Con el tiempo, el entorno sería convertido en letrinas públicas.
Se decidió tapiar la curia en la que había sido asesinado, designar con el nombre de “Parricidio” los idus de marzo y no celebrar jamás una reunión del Senado en esta fecha (Suetonio, Vidas de los doce césares: El divino Julio)
En la actual plaza Largo di Torre Argentina se pueden ver hoy los restos del lado este del pórtico, así como tres de los cuatro templos.
Restos del teatro de Pompeyo están en el subsuelo de la Vía di Grotta Pinta, mientras que las bóvedas originales del teatro forman los sótanos de los restaurantes de esta calle y parte de las paredes del hotel Albergo Sole al Biscione.
El punto exacto donde cayó César, justo en el centro del fondo de la curia, a los pies de la estatua de Pompeyo, puede contemplarse hoy frente a los restos de los templos, prácticamente embebido bajo el pavimento de la calle.
The Spot Where Julius Caesar Was Killed Opens to Tourists in Rome — What to Know
Travelers to Rome have a new way to step into history thanks to a brand-new elevated walkway that will bring visitors over the spot where Julius Caesar was killed.
The Largo Argentina square where the infamous assassination took place in 44 B.C. opened to the public this week, according to Rome’s mayor. The new access is thanks to a series of walkways (and nighttime illumination) funded by the luxury jeweler Bulgari, The Associated Press reported.
“Happy to be able to give back to the Romans and tourists the Sacred Area of Largo Argentina in all its beauty,” Mayor Roberto Gualtieri wrote in a Facebook post, calling the site “a real precious jewel made of history, art and culture, nestled in the heart of our city.”
Gualtieri added visitors will be able to “literally immerse themselves in History” by visiting the wall of the Curia of Pompeo where Caesar was killed along with the ruins of four temples.
The walkways are accessible and both wheelchair and stroller friendly. To reach the ruins, travelers can either descend on a staircase or use an elevator platform, the AP noted. General admission will cost 5 euros (about $5.50), and the ruins will be open every day except Mondays and some holidays.
Previously, the ancient spot was only visible from the street level. That is on a higher ground than the temples, which were first unearthed in the 1920s as part of dictator Benito Mussolini’s plan to change the landscape of the city, according to the wire service.
“We go forward in this way to enhance and make more and more fruitful and attractive the great city cultural heritage that never ceases to amaze with its treasures and wonders,” Gualtieri said in his post.
The letter S is the 19th letter of the Latin alphabet and the English alphabet. It is also used in other Western European languages and other Latin alphabets.

10 On the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, the word of the Lord came by Haggai the prophet,11 “Thus says the Lord of hosts: Ask the priests about the law:12 ‘If someone carries holy meat in the fold of his garment and touches with his fold bread or stew or wine or oil or any kind of food, does it become holy?’” The priests answered and said, “No.”13 Then Haggai said, “If someone who is unclean by contact with a dead body touches any of these, does it become unclean?” The priests answered and said, “It does become unclean.”14 Then Haggai answered and said, “So is it with this people, and with this nation before me, declares the Lord, and so with every work of their hands. And what they offer there is unclean.15 Now then, consider from this day onward.[a] Before stone was placed upon stone in the temple of the Lord,16 how did you fare? When[b] one came to a heap of twenty measures, there were but ten. When one came to the wine vat to draw fifty measures, there were but twenty.17 I struck you and all the products of your toil with blight and with mildew and with hail, yet you did not turn to me, declares the Lord.18 Consider from this day onward, from the twenty-fourth day of the ninth month. Since the day that the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid, consider:19 Is the seed yet in the barn? Indeed, the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate, and the olive tree have yielded nothing. But from this day on I will bless you.”
Modo IA Todo Imágenes Vídeos Noticias Maps Shopping Libros Vuelos Finance 16 sitios The connection you are describing stems from a fascinating blend of historical geography, overlapping Roman surnames (cognomina), and medieval Christian lore. There is no direct biblical or theological connection between Saint Mary Magdalene and the assassination of Julius Caesar; however, their traditions intersect deeply through the geography of Rome and the linguistic origins of the legend of Saint Longinus. Here is the breakdown of why these historical figures, dates, and locations are intertwined: 1. The Linguistic Connection: The Spear of Longinus and Gaius Cassius Longinus The most direct link between Julius Caesar and the crucifixion of Christ involves the name Longinus. The Roman Assassin: One of the primary instigators behind the assassination of Julius Caesar at the Curia of Pompey on March 15, 44 BC, was the Roman Senator Gaius Cassius Longinus. Wikipedia The Christian Saint: In the Gospel of John, an unnamed Roman soldier pierces the side of Jesus with a lance. In later apocryphal texts (specifically the 4th-century Gospel of Nicodemus), this soldier is given the name Saint Longinus. Study.com +1 The Connection: Scholars note that the name "Longinus" for the Christian soldier likely derives from the Greek word for lance, lonche (λóγχη). However, early Christian writers and medieval dramatists heavily drew symbolic parallels between Gaius Cassius Longinus—the man who stabbed the "father" of the Roman Empire—and Saint Longinus, the man who pierced the side of Christ. Because Mary Magdalene was present at the foot of the cross during this exact moment, her iconographic narrative is forever linked to the Lance of Longinus. Reddit +5 2. The Geographic Connection: Largo di Torre Argentina and the Tiber Your mention of "Torre Argentina" and the Tiber River perfectly maps the geography of Caesar's death to Roman Christianization. Largo di Torre Argentina: This archaeological site in Rome contains the ruins of the Curia of Pompey, the precise location where Julius Caesar was assassinated. The Tiber and the Vatican: Following political upheavals in Rome (such as the assassination of Later emperors like Elagabalus, whose bodies were thrown into the Tiber), the river became a symbol of pagan Rome's transition to Christian Rome. The Tiber flows directly past the Vatican and past the San Giovanni dei Fiorentini church, which sits right on the riverbank. This specific church is famous for housing a major relic: the foot of Mary Magdalene. Joan's Rome +1 The Connection: The Catholic Church purposely superimposed Christian sacred spaces over ancient Roman historical sites. The proximity of the ruins of Caesar's assassination (Torre Argentina) to the Tiber and the subsequent resting places of Christian relics (like Mary Magdalene's relic near the river and the Holy Lance held inside St. Peter's Basilica) creates a dense geographic cluster of history. Joan's Rome +2 3. The Temporal Connection: July 22 and the Julian Calendar The date of July 22, the Feast of Mary Magdalene, connects to Julius Caesar through the implementation of timekeeping itself. The Julian Calendar: The month of July (Julius) was explicitly named after Julius Caesar to honor his birth month and his reform of the calendar system. The Sea of Tiberias Connection: Mary Magdalene originates from the town of Magdala, located on the shores of the Sea of Galilee—which was officially renamed the Sea of Tiberias to honor Roman Emperor Tiberius Caesar (Julius Caesar's adoptive step-grandson). The Feast Day Setting: When the early Church formalized the liturgical calendar, major saints like Mary Magdalene were assigned feasts in the peak of summer (July 22). According to Christian tradition, Mary Magdalene actually traveled to Rome and preached to Emperor Tiberius himself. Setting her feast day in "July" (Caesar's month) structurally contextualized her victory over the pagan Roman Empire, celebrating her as the "Apostle to the Apostles" right in the heart of the calendar system Caesar created. Summary Matrix Entity Connection to Julius Caesar Connection to Mary Magdalene Longinus Gaius Cassius Longinus was Caesar's assassin. St. Longinus pierced Christ's side as Mary watched.
