Sacred Heart Catholic Church was originally formed to serve the increasing German population setting in the Florissant area. The other Catholic Church, St. Ferdinand was French based. Many of the early German settlers spoke neither English or French. The Sacred Heart parish dates to 1867 and the present church building was built in 1893. The church is in a Gothic Revival style with it dominating spire.
