Villa Maria Motherhouse Complex
Villa Maria Motherhouse Complex, Catholic convent in Cheektowaga, United States.
The Villa Maria Motherhouse Complex features three distinct Gothic Revival sections, with architectural elements designed by Sandel, Strong, and Fronczak in 1927.
The complex originally accommodated a boarding and day high school, public and private chapels, along with the Motherhouse and Novitiate for the Felician Sisters.
The facility represents the ongoing presence of the Felician Sisters of St. Francis, who dedicated their lives to religious education and community service.
Following the closure of Villa Maria Academy in 2006, portions of the property were transformed into residential spaces for senior citizens.
The complex earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006, marking its significance in American architectural heritage.
