"Architectural Description: The Assumption Church is a one-story
Romanesque Revival stone church built in 1924. The church has a
stone foundation, gable roof of asphalt shingles and exterior of
native sandstone. On the main (E) facade is a two-story
rectangular bell tower with a pyramidal roof. The tower has
rounded arch louvered openings and corner battlemounts. The main
entrance is located in the base of the tower and features double
doors of wood with leaded glass lights. Over the doors is an
elliptical mosaic panel. The door is framed by cushion capitals.
The church has rounded arch stained glass windows and wall
buttresses. At the eaves are stone brackets. On the north
facade is a stone and concrete handicapped ramp completed in
1993.
Historical Data: The Assumption Church was founded in 1853 and a
church building was originally constructed in 1863. A second
church was constructed in 1895, and the present church was built
in 1924. The church was constructed through the efforts of
Father Francis Schiller. The church cost $56,801 to build.
Architects were Ludewig & Dreisoerner of St. Louis. Bernard
Holthaus and Sebastian Vogel were the building's contractors." ~ DNR Historic Survey PDF page 722
