Coeur d'Alene Tribe Pilgrimage & Feast of the Assumption at the old Coeur d'Alene Mission
The Old Mission (built 1848-1853) was a combined effort of the missionaries and over 300 native Catholics using local materials. Today the mission is part of a very sacred tradition, the Tribe's annual pilgrimage to the cemetery and church followed by Mass and a dinner accompanied by Native American drumming, singing and dancing.
