St. Mary Catholic Church, Catholic church in Korona, Florida, United States.
St. Mary Catholic Church is a church building in Korona, Florida, with eight lancet windows along its walls and a wooden steeple at the front. The original sanctuary seats approximately 65 people while maintaining its historic character.
Polish families who settled in Korona in 1914 built the original church to serve their community. They named it in honor of the Virgin Mary as Queen of Poland.
The name Korona comes from Polish and means 'crown,' referring to the Virgin Mary who is honored as Queen in Polish tradition. This religious concept reflects the identity that early community founders brought from their homeland.
The building is open daily for masses, baptisms, funerals, weddings, and quiet prayer. Visitors can explore the adjacent Shrine of Saint Christopher, which also serves as a rest area.
The property includes the Shrine of Saint Christopher, built in 1935 and dedicated to blessing travelers with safe journeys. This made it a meaningful stopping point for people passing through the area.
