Welcome

A warm Cathedral welcome to our new rector,

Fr. Fred Klotter!

A native Louisvillian, Fr. Fred Klotter, was ordained a priest for the Archdiocese of Louisville in 1996. Growing up, he attended both public and Catholic schools, and then entered Indiana University in Bloomington where he accomplished the Bachelor of Science (BS) degree in Finance.

After college, he worked in the banking industry for a number of years and during those years earned a master’s in business administration (MBA) at Bellarmine University. Eventually, he felt the call to priesthood and entered seminary at age 30.

Since ordination he has been privileged with the opportunity to earn two pontifical degrees: the licentiate in systematic theology (STL) and the licentiate in canon law (JCL).

Pastorally, he served as an associate pastor in both Oldham and Marion Counties, and then for eight years he pastored St. Martin of Tours Church in downtown Louisville. In mid-June, Fr. Klotter will finish his twelfth year as pastor of the Church of the Holy Spirit Church in St. Matthews. He has one brother, Pete, who lives in the Seattle area with his wife and two daughters.

Father Klotter’s appointment as Cathedral Rector is effective June 19, 2024.

Steiner-Reck Organ The 42 rank tracker organ has mechanical key action, and electric stop action. The gothic style casework is made of hand-carved mahogany.
Garden of Benevolence The stained-glass window in the garden was commissioned by the Cathedral Heritage Foundation during the 1994 renovation of the Cathedral.
Wood-carved Bosses The ornate woodcarvings or bosses on the ceiling were originally installed as a means for ventilation into the attic.
Arched Windows The Cathedral is designed in Neo-Gothic style. The arched windows of hand-painted glass allow sunlight to create beautiful images through-out the nave.
