The Catholic church of St. Salvator in Adelzhausen, a municipality in the Swabian district of Aichach-Friedberg (Bavaria), was built in 1671. The pilgrimage church, located southeast of the village on an open field, is a protected monument.
Instead of today's building, a cane with a carved grace image of the Saviour stood on the open field. The then court marksman Johann Franz von Preysing had a chapel built here in 1671 and the pilgrimage picture transferred there. The current building was built in 1730. Probably around 1736 changes were made. In 1858, a gallery was installed, which was removed during the renovation in 1960/61.

This stucco is unlike any other stucco texture I have seen. It does remind me of the texture of PlayDough, especially along the lower edges of each trowel layer. Also, it could be spackling used to patch drywall.

Basilique Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupre is a magnificent neo-Roman basilica located approximately 45 minutes northeast of Quebec City.
Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupre is the patron saint of sailors who made the hazardous trip across the Atlantic from France to the new continent, and promised to build a chapel in her honor at the spot where they landed.
The present building is the fifth construction of the holy place, built in 1923, the earlier ones falling victim to the vagaries of the hostile northern climate.
The basilica is one of six national shrines in Canada, and is reputed to have miraculous healing properties attracting up to half a million visitors per year.

In 1885 Bohemian immigrants founded Saint John Nepomucene Catholic Church, named for the patron saint of Czechoslovakia. The settlers, most of whom emigrated from Prague, named their community Praga. This Gothic Revival church was built as a frame structure in 1890; the steeple and bell were added in 1893. In 1926 the church was clad in fieldstone. The altar and some statues date from 1894. Since its founding, Saint John Church has been served by neighboring priests.

This was the first Catholic Church in the Northern Neck of Virginia. It was dedicated in 1885 as St Francis Catholic Chapel and is located in Kilmarnock, VA. Until 1915 priests came by steamship from Fredericksburg down the Rappahannock River because the congregation was not large enough for a full time priest. A new brick church was dedicated as St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church in 1956 (picture in first comment). In the 1980’s this old church was restored and named Palmer Hall after John Palmer who donated the land.
Built in a stripped back, Gothic style, the former Catholic Church on River Road in the tiny country town of Woodford is a classic example of an unassuming and elegant country church.
Although now used for commercial premises, the former Woodford Catholic Church remains intact and maintains many of its original Gothic features including its parapeted gables, the vertical element of the cross on the skyline and the tracery around the lancet windows. All of these are typical Gothic architectural features. It also still retains its original Gothic style stained glass windows.
Sadly, with no foundation stone or memorial plaque it is impossible to date the church, and I can find no record of it.
Woodford is a very small township in the Western District of Victoria, located nine kilometres north of Warrnambool. The town is home to Woodford Primary School which opened on the first of May 1854. Woodford Post Office opened on 1 January 1854, and closed sometime in 1975. It's population consists of only a few hundred people these days.
Today unused, this high altar was a gift to the parish of Sacred Heart by a wealthy English couple who had been helped by the pastor.
this current photo is from an amazing wedding for our second cousin. The real story is 84 years ago my wife's parents were married at this same altar
When Polish immigrants came to America back in the late 1800s and early 1900s, they found comfort and community in their churches. Sweetest Heart of Mary Church was a cornerstone of the Polish community in Detroit. It remains a source of pride and a beacon of faith for Polish Americans in the metro Detroit area to this day. The Church project began in 1890 and was completed in 1893

This is a photo of St. Gerard Majella Catholic Church in Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia. The Church's website states: "Our church building was originally the chapel for the military base and the grounds had several other buildings as well. A Post Office and Saddlery were adjacent to the church. Since Ft. Oglethorpe was the home to the U. S. Army's 6th Cavalary, a Saddlery was crucial. Another parishioner apartment was located in the rear of the Saddlery building. The foundations of these buildings remain today. The original base 'Mess Hall' was used by our parish as a social hall for many years. Many church dinners and dances were held there until the building was rented for other uses, including a piano refurbishing shop which remained in business until the early 1970's. Directly behind our church were 3 buildings that were stables and warehouses, which were also converted into living space for parishioners." www.saintgerardmajella.net/history.htm.
While taking Toby out for his evening walk, I couldn't help but notice the beautiful orange/reddish sky. Besides the silhouette of "the city," pictured here is our church's bell-tower.
