"Simple stations were built here in 1889. Present images were donated in 1901 by Joseph Highberger, Westphalia, Kansas, when more impressive brick stations were built. Although the stations eroded, images remained intact and were incorporated into the present stations. Each 13 ft. high of reinforced concrete on a 6 by 6 ft solid concrete base, built in 1950 under direction of Rev. Peter Minwegen, O.M.I. blessed that same year by Rev. Coleman Borgard. O.F.M. of Hermann, Mo." - plaque
