GRACE CATHEDRAL located in the Nob Hall area of San Francisco, features two labyrinths set in stone, modeled after the one from Chartres Cathedral. One labyrinth is inside the main cathedral and th eother is outside the front entrance of the church.
We visited in August 1998 to gather a small slide show of images. Because weddings were taking palce inside the church, these images are from the outside Labyrinth.
The Labyrinth project is very much a part of Grace, and their own web site offers an excellent set of resources:
- Veriditas: The World Wide Labyrinth Project is the main starting point.

- Grace Cathedral Virtual Tour uses QuickTime VR technology to provide a 360 degree view of different areas of the Cathedral, including the Labrinth.
