[3] The Cathedral of St. Joseph traces its history to the establishment of St. Michael's Church, Sioux Falls' first Catholic parish.
It became the Pro-Cathedral when Bishop Martin Marty, who was Vicar Apostolic of the Dakota Territory, arrived in Sioux Falls in 1889.
Conrad Schmitt Studios decorated the interior the following year, and the marble high altar and tester were installed in 1946.
In 2004 the Sacred Heart Chapel was created in the sacristy and the basement was renovated to become a parish hall.
