The Loretto Chapel Staircase
Its so lovely. I heard it was built by ST. Joseph. I was wondering how did you come about this information. And where can I go to find out more about this ST. Joseph on the internet. And do you know if he did build this staircase for the chapel? Did he build any others? In Galveston Texas, there is a very old house, that has a staircase built very close to this one. However it has rails. I know that rails are now on this staircase. My daughter and son-in-law, and grandson visited this church, this week. I am fasinated by all old church's. And now I am wanting to know more about the person who built it.
