Saint Anthony's Chapel
A small chapel housing about 5,000 relics, said to be one of the largest Catholic relic collections outside the Vatican.
The chapel was built in the 1880s by Belgian-born Father Moeder. Its interior walls are covered with gilded reliquaries holding saints' relics, and there are fourteen Stations of the Cross carved in wood at life size. It is small and unusual, and it suits visitors interested in religious art. Entry is free, but opening hours are short, usually a few afternoons a week, and a guided tour is recommended. The chapel is in the Troy Hill neighborhood, about 10 minutes' drive from the Strip District.
Opening hours
Usually open Tue, Thu, Sat, and Sun afternoons
