St. John the Baptist Catholic Church - Ammannsville, TX - U.S. National Register of Historic Places on Waymarking.com

St. John the Baptist Catholic church opened in 1890. Destroyed by the hurricane of 1909, the church was rebuilt. It burned and had to be rebuilt a second time.

The two statues of angels that hold holy water at the entrance of the church were found discarded and in bad repair in the attic of the old rectory. Mr. Gene Mikulik painstakingly restored them. Now they proudly stand welcoming visitors from around the world.
