Finished in 1887,Saint Boniface Catholic Church in New Vienna, IA. is one of the finest cathedrals in Iowa. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places....
Cropped to hide an unsightly "watch your step" sign which is a shame-the door is equally beautiful!
Built in the late 19th century, this former parish rectory is now a private home. The structure sits behind St. Boniface Catholic Church in downtown Quincy. St. Boniface is best known as where Augustine Tolton, the first black priest in the United States, was ordained in 1886. The current St. Boniface, a stunning modernist design by John Benya that opened in 1962, is now closed.
On my walk to the hospital for my immunotherapy treatments; I like to take different routes and explore the city when I have the energy to do so. I came upon a newer statue and small garden area. Overlooking this Grey Nun statue, over her shoulder you can see a bit of the garden and the St. Boniface Hospital in the distance. Just thought this is a different perspective of a monument... what does the monument see and overlook?

An interesting hodgepodge after modernization. According to tax data, the three dwellings have a total of 2,495 square feet of area and the entire building has an assessed value of $383,000 C.
The first floor steps are actually a mini-wooden deck and a guy is on the roof. I suspect that in 1900 it was not built as a three plex but this is just a guess based on its current unconventionality and convoluted appearance.
The old picket fence and the crudeness of the "boarded up" front door caught my eye.
Most of the visible part of the first floor except for the tower is in bad shape but the tower and second floor siding look quite new along with the tower roof. Curious.
I spent some time this morning in the old part of St. Boniface, the francophone (French) part of Winnipeg. I found some interesting and rather unique buildings in areas of St B where I had not previously visited. This is one of them.
Reclame-Tatrastellen 82+30 rijden voorbij de Sint Bonifatiuskerk ( Kostel svatého Bonifáce ) en zijn bijna bij het eindpunt Horní Hanychov. Eén op de twee trams rijdt door naar dit eindpunt. Het rode stickertje voorop verraadt dat het een normaalsporige tram is. Dat onderscheid doet er niet meer toe: de laatste smalspoortramlijn is in juli 2021 in de verbouw naar normaalspoor gegaan.
Een paar uur later waren we daar weer in de buurt: de V-snaar van de auto was geknapt. Handig zo op de vrijdagmiddag voor terugkeer naar Nederland.
St. Boniface Catholic Church in rural Bigelow Arkansas. Established in 1843 and still holding services each Sunday.
Happy Slider Sunday - HSS !!
Sophia von Rom bzw. die Kalte Sophie ist eine der fünf Eisheiligen, ihr Namenstag wird am 15. Mai gefeiert.
Auch als “kalte Sophie” oder „nasse Sophie“ bekannt, ist Sophia von Rom die letzte der fünf Eisheiligen.
Die heilige Sophia von Rom wird oftmals gegen Spätfröste angerufen und um eine gute Ernte zu erbitten.
Known as die Eisheiligen in German, the Ice Saints are not a true holiday or even a feast day, but more of a traditional farmer's or gardener's weather and planting guide (Bauernregel).
The Ice Saints are St. Mamertus (or, in some countries, St. Boniface of Tarsus), St. Pancras, and St. Servatius. They are so named because their feast days fall on the days of May 11, May 12, and May 13 respectively, known as the blackthorn winter in Austrian, Belgian, Croatian, Czech, Dutch, French, German, Hungarian, North-Italian, Polish, Slovak, Slovene and Swiss folklore.

No AI, no copy & paste, just my camera on a tripod and thirty minutes of my time with trial and error. I was lucky that there was a tree nearby, where crows were building nests, and there was a lot of flying activity that day.
Rolling away from their away-from-home terminal, the Montreal-based crew is homeward-bound on a warm spring afternoon, hoping to make the 105-mile run back to Montréal as quick as possible. The curved trestle spanning a little creek just north of St-Boniface was the site of numerous run past back in the excursion days on the Joliette subdivision.
Now it's basically impossible to shoot anything here, except climbing onto the rock cut on the south side of the bridge, like we do on this pleasant railfanning day thirteen years ago.
Next stop for the train will be the south siding switch at St-Justin, holding the main for a meet with northbound M368.

Roman Catholic Boniface Church Almere NL.
Architects Jurgen Boonstra and Freerk Hoekstra of Royal HaskoningDHV - 2021
Almere was built at a time when church attendance was declining sharply. That is why it was decided to opt for ecumenical places of worship that Protestants and Catholics would make joint use of. Completely against the national trend, however, the number of Catholics in Almere has increased in recent years. This is mainly due to the rapid growth in the number of inhabitants in Almere, as well as to newcomers from countries where the Catholic faith is still widely practiced. Because of this increase, the Boniface parish needed its own church, where its own tradition can be visibly present. After years of preparation, the church is now in use. The architects opted for a classic starting point: a nave with two aisles and an apse at the end. Daylight has been chosen to enter the church from above. This gives a calming, sacred effect. That light also shines on the 72-meter-long artwork by Théodore Stravinsky that the church has purchased. That work was taken from a church in Almelo that has since disappeared. This artwork is incorporated into the top of the facade walls. The materials used for the church are often left unfinished, such as rough concrete, a laminated timber structure, wood paneling and rough masonry walls. The imposing artwork by Stravinksy enriches the art experience in Almere, so that the new church may be included in the art route.

Tramwaj pędzi w stronę pętli Horní Hanychov. Kościół, który króluje nad okolicą, nadaje przystankowi nazwę (Hanychov Kostel, czyli Hanychov Kościół). Trasa na Horní Hanychov prowadzi przez dzielnicę o charakterze podmiejskim. Aż do przystanku Kubelíkova (6 przystanków) nie ma żadnych świateł.
W tle Kostel sv. Bonifáce (Kościół św. Bonifacego).
A tram is going in direction Horní Hanychov. The church dominating the neibourhood, gives the stop its name )Hanychov Kostel, Hanychov Church). The tram line to Horní Hanychov leads through a suburban distrcit. Until Kubelíkova stop (6 stops) there are no trafic lights.
In the back you can see Kostel sv. Bonifáce (St Boniface's Church).
This is one of Alberta's earliest German Catholic churches, its first stage being built between 1905 and 1908. It was completed in 1912.
The church was in regular use to the mid-70s, and is still occasionally employed for special services such as funerals and weddings. Burials are still being made in the cemetery. A statue of the church's patron saint is located above the front entrance.
St. Boniface Catholic Church was the first consecrated Catholic Church in the state of Washington in 1903.
The building has retained its original splendor and resisted proposals to modernize it.
