This bell tower was built for St. Boniface Catholic Church circa 1909. It features three bells. According to the St. Boniface Parish History Project prepared by Diane Welter, 2005)the bells are: "imprinted with the date of 1909 from the Henry Stuckstede Bell Foundry Company of St. Louis, Missouri. Additionally, the bells are imprinted as follows: 1) the large bell: 'Bonifacius -vocat populum suum'; 2) the mid size bell: 'Sancta Maria - ora pro nobis'; and 3) the small bell: 'Sancta Barbara - protege nos hora mortis'. These bells ring automatically for Mass and Angelus daily."
