Chapter 82

Washington National Cathedral Nave

National Cathedral in The Lost Symbol

Robert Langdon and Katherine proceed down the 400-foot-long aisle, and one can only imagine what an eerie experience this would be in the immense, unlit nave. See also: National Cathedral online video tours an excellent video tour of the Cathedral's nave, and an interactive view of the nave.


Langdon mentions reaching the great crossing, the point where the arms of the cross meet.


The rood screen, the symbolic divider between the public area and the sanctuary, is seen here. (Here's a wonderful photo showing this area in the nave.)

  1. Thank you, Dana! Really great job!
    I have the DaVinci Code book illustrated version, which was very helpful! And I missed the pictures in the Lost Symbol. Thank you for that :)
