Historic Catholic Churches in Detroit - Hardcover

by Linda Dombrowski (Author)

• This book is a journey through twenty-one of Detroit's most beautiful historic Catholic churches, many built in the early 20th century when the city was at the height of its wealth and industry. Inside, you'll find stunning images of both interiors and exteriors, showcasing intricate stained-glass windows and finely crafted statues - many created by immigrant artisans or imported from Europe. Each church is accompanied by interesting notes that highlight its history and character. Together, these churches tell the story of the Polish, German, French, Irish, and Italian communities that built them and made them the heart of Detroit's neighborhoods.
