It is a state designated historic site.
The sign reads: Holy Trinity Catholic Church “Established in 1856. Holy Trinity was moved to this site in1858. Five of its priests lost their lives treating the victims of the Yellow Fever Epidemic of 1873. The present church, in Romanesque Revival style was built in 1896.”
The building is absolutely grand. Many years ago I saw it on TV and with it setting down among the large tall surrounding buildings I first thought it was is some far away eastern city.
