The Shrine of the Blessed Virgin [1] is an outdoor worship area in South Oakland. Built with private funds, the shrine is tucked away on a bluff overlooking Parkway East, the South Side, and it even offers a city view.
Mt. Lebanon Magazine photographer Robert Papke has visited this spot close to a dozen times over the years, and he’s sharing his most recent trip with us. Please enjoy visiting this Pittsburgh gem through a photographer’s lens.
