Mary Queen of Peace Catholic Church Pottsville, Pennsylvania, Spanish Mission Style Catholic Church in Pottsville, United States.
Located at 728 North Centre Street, Mary Queen of Peace Catholic Church features traditional Spanish Mission architectural elements throughout its exterior and interior design.
The Roman Catholic parish, established in 1920, held its first services in a renovated stable before constructing the current church building in 1929.
The church maintained a parochial school from 1925 to 1966, educating local students while Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary operated from an on-site convent.
The building underwent closure in 2008 as part of Diocese of Allentown's restructuring plan, leading to consolidation with Saint Patrick's Parish.
In 2012, four years after its official closure, the church reopened for a single mass that drew more than 300 former parishioners to the building.
