About St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church (Milwaukee, Wisconsin)
Religion, Churches, Interesting Places, Other Churches
St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church is a historic church at the corner of 7th and Washington Streets in Walker's Point on the near South Side of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Since 2006, it has been administered jointly with the nearby parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe, and the two share Jesuit clergy.
St. Patrick's was founded in 1876 to serve the then-predominantly ethnic Irish population. It was the first English-speaking Catholic parish on Milwaukee's South Side. The current Gothic Revival church was dedicated in 1893. It was designated a city landmark in 1973 and added to the National Register of Historic Places the following year for its artistic and architectural significance.
