The Bishop's Chapel
The Bishop's Chapel is so named because it contains the likenesses of six bishops of Lincoln in the stained-glass window.
In the wall brackets on each side of the Alter are gas flames. These perpetual flames burn in memory of the four Bishops who are buried in this chapel: Bishop Bonacum, Bishop O'Reilly, Bishop Kucera and Bishop Flavin. Only those Bishops who die while still in office or in retirement are buried in this Chapel. There are nine crypts available.
