Saturday's Church

Assumption

Here in the Saintly city we have a lot of churches, but not as many churches as bars.  With 210-foot twin towers of Assumption Church, the oldest church in St. Paul, are familiar downtown landmarks. The beautiful German Romanesque revival structure was built of local limestone between 1869 and 1873 by a German Catholic parish.  It is impossible to photograph without people walking by, even on a day with sub-zero wind chills.
