Obviously a subjective topic. In your opinion, what are New Orleans and the immediate surrounding areas (Westbank, Metairie, Northshore, Da Parish are all fine, too) prettiest churches? Any denomination is fine. St. Louis Cathedral, obviously, is the most well known; however, I'd argue that New Orleans has a others that are more aesthetically pleasing. My two favorites:

Immaculate Conception



St. Mary's Assumption

Look up the Painted Churches in Texas.

In Louisiana, this one.

Look up St Michael’s in Convent, La

Went to weddings at St. Joseph's on Tulane and Immaculate Conception on Barone. Both are stunning.

St Josephs Abbey outside Covington the prettiest church with grounds
Catch the Monks chanting as a plus

A great reminder that if the place you go on Sundays has a stage and no altar, you are at a TED talk not a place to worship.

Immaculate Conception on Barone
Gorgeous church that I had an epiphany in while in there alone one day during a very bad time in my life...

The ones that have both are where you really gotta watch out.
