National Shrine of Our Lady of Martyrs

Fultonville

The Church of the 72 Doors is exactly what it sounds like: a massive round coliseum of a church perched on a bluff above the Mohawk Valley. Built where three Jesuit missionaries were martyred in the 1600s, the 600-acre grounds include a 4,000-pound wooden crucifix, a stockade-style altar, and peaceful walking paths that feel miles from the nearby thruway.
