Immaculate Conception Church
Immaculate Conception Church, Catholic church in downtown Fairbanks, United States
The Immaculate Conception Church stands as a wooden structure featuring a traditional design with a simple rectangular layout at 115 Cushman Street.
Father Francis Monroe established this religious building in 1904, making it the first Roman Catholic church in the interior region of Alaska.
The church supported the local population by establishing a hospital across the Chena River in 1906 to provide medical services to residents.
The building moved to its current location in November 1911 by rolling it across the frozen Chena River to improve accessibility for worshippers.
The National Register of Historic Places recognized this church in 1976 for its role in developing religious services throughout interior Alaska.
