A new one for me. Perhaps some New Yorkers can tell us about it.

Beautiful place. I grew up 12 mi. west of there (Canajoharie).

Location: ~30 mi. west of Albany, in the heart of the historic Mohawk Valley. Via NY Thruway: exit Fonda/Fultonville.

Growing up in Canajoharie as an altar boy and Boy Scout, we Catholic scouts had wkend pilgrimage/camporees every Sep at Auriesville. I still harbor warm memories...

Dominus vobiscum.

I live about 15 miles from the shrine. It is a beautiful piece of property that is currently a shell of its former self (so I’m told...I didn’t grow up in this area). The colliseum is very unusual in that it contains multiple altars that at one time they had simultaneous masses. It can seat 6,000 people inside the circular structure. Biggest recent “scandal” is the sale of the retreat center to a Buddhist community. Supposedly many catholic groups offered to buy the property from the Jesuits but they sold it to the Buddhists instead. http://www.martyrshrine.org/pages/scrapbook.html
