During StrOlean...Free 45-minute tour of our amazing art, history and architecture as we explore this jewel in the valley. Come see why so many have come to Olean for more than 100 years just to see what's inside. We're open all day, every day of the week. This tour is a special event for anyone wanting to discover the story behind this spectacular house of worship and all that's contained in it. The story behind our windows alone is worth the adventure! Discover a side of Olean's history you have never heard before! Guided by the author of the basilica's brand new history book, Jennifer Kane (who wrote the Vatican application for minor basilica status which Pope Francis granted in 2017.)
