The Washington National Cathedral, the world's sixth-largest, this year marks 100 years since construction began.

The Cathedral in Washington, D.C., was started in 1907 and completed in 1990.

Centennial celebrations kicked off last week with the debut of the multimedia exhibit Dreamers and Believers: Cathedral Builders, which runs through November.

Events — including organ concerts, artisan demonstrations, speaker forums and more — rev into high gear Sept. 28-30 with a day-long festival Sept. 29 and other commemorations.
