Dating to 1899, this historic church is built of white Austin limestone quarried in Liberty Hill, and is complemented with a dark slate roof. It exemplifies the cruciform plan, with a long nave leading from the main entrance at the west to the chancel at the East, and a cross formed by North and South transepts. All but one of the stained-glass windows are the work of the famed Willett Stained Glass Studios of Philadelphia. A 1939 renovation by San Antonio architect Marvin Eichenricht extended the chancel to the east and was built of stone from the same quarry used in the original structure. Recorded Texas historic landmark – 2013 |
