St. Ignatius Roman Catholic Church
St. Ignatius Roman Catholic Church, Catholic church in St. Inigoes, Maryland
The brick church building, constructed between 1785 and 1787, features 21-inch thick walls laid in Flemish bond with a wooden belfry.
Following the closure of Maryland's first Catholic chapel in 1704, the bricks were transported downriver to construct the present St. Ignatius Church in 1785.
The church maintains artifacts from the original ships 'The Ark' and 'The Dove' that transported the first Maryland colonists in 1633.
Located at 17682 Villa Road in St. Inigoes, Maryland, the church offers religious services and welcomes visitors to explore its historical grounds.
A distinctive stained glass window depicts a local Native American chief who joined the parish after converting to Christianity in the 1640s.
