Old St. Peter's Church

The former Catholic church stands at 3rd and Lincoln Streets, with a distinguished red brick exterior and tall spires reaching toward the sky.

Built in 1897 and dedicated in 1898, the church faced demolition in 1971 until local residents organized efforts to preserve the structure.

The building now functions as a community center, hosting numerous events including weddings, concerts, memorial services, and nonprofit gatherings throughout the year.

Free guided tours introduce visitors to the architectural elements of the church, while discounted rates encourage nonprofit organizations to use the space.

The structure maintains its original late 19th century architectural features, including stained glass windows, wooden pews, and intricate stone carvings.
