Casa Grande Stone Church on West Florence Boulevard is a building made from locally sourced stones with a copper dome and thick stone walls. The structure displays carefully crafted fieldstone distributed across the entire facade.
The building was constructed in 1927 by stonemason Michael Sullivan and shows his craftsmanship in every detail. Its recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978 honored the architectural importance of this construction.
The building was the First Presbyterian Church of Casa Grande, and its first service was held in January 1928. Since June 1977 it has belonged to the Casa Grande Historical Society, which runs The Museum of Casa Grande inside it, where exhibits cover the town and the surrounding area.
The building today houses the Museum of Casa Grande with exhibits about regional development. Visitors should explore the interior to see the exhibits that help understand local history.
The building remains Sullivan's largest fieldstone structure in Casa Grande and shows the scope of his work. Its construction covering 0,3 acres demonstrates the care and skill this stonemason invested in his largest projects.
