St. Francis Xavier College Church, Gothic Revival church in Midtown St. Louis, US.
The church features a tall central spire completed in 1914, flanked by symmetrical towers and adorned with pointed arches and stone carvings.
The parish originated in 1836 when Bishop Joseph Rosati permitted Jesuits to establish a congregation at their college, marking St. Louis's first English-speaking parish.
The stained glass windows, installed between 1929 and 1938 by Emil Frei Jr., represent significant religious artistry in American ecclesiastical architecture.
The church offers daily masses at 7:15 am and noon on weekdays, with additional weekend services and reconciliation sessions from Monday through Friday.
The architectural design draws direct inspiration from Saint Colman's Cathedral in Cobh, Ireland, selected by Father Henry Bronsgeest during his 26-year tenure.
