"Saint John the Baptist Cathedral"

The first church was built in 1880 - 82 but was too small after the parish grew.

A new church was designed in a Gothic-Romanesque style by Thomas Bermingham and constructed of red brick.[3] The facade features a triple entry framed by two square towers with spires. Above the entry is a small rose window. 

When the Diocese of Monterey-Fresno was split from the Diocese of Los Angeles-San Diego in 1922, St. John's was selected as the cathedral for the new Diocese. When Monterey and Fresno were further split in 1967, St. John's became the seat of the new Bishop of Fresno.
