Authentic Augusta 1. Sacred Heart Cultural Center If you must choose only one place to see, make it the awe-inspiring Sacred Heart. From the gleaming silver dome and spires to the marble columns leading inside, this former Catholic church is filled with enough art, history, and ritual to steal your breath away. Words don't do it justice. Don't just look at the pictures. Go and experience this magnificent structure. You'll never forget it. BUILT TO LAST Augusta's architecture is picture perfect. By Brian Panowich 2. The Marion Hatcher Center Built in 1835 as a private residence, the event venue remains one of the most beautiful buildings in the downtown area. Years of remodeling have spared its original Victorian intricacies - and supposedly not disrupted the ghosts said to roam its halls. Visit Augusta.com 41http://www.VisitAugusta.com
