Official Website for Old St. Peter's Landmark | The Dalles, Oregon
Description
Old St. Peter's Landmark, originally known as St. Peter's Catholic Church, was built in 1897, and was dedicated on St. Patrick's Day, March 17, 1898.
In 1970, the Monsignor of the Church declared that the church should be torn down and the bricks sold. At the time, a new church was being built that would hold more parishioners and would provide easier access for Senior Citizens.
A small band of citizens, concerned that such an exquisite building should be destroyed, formed Old St. Peter's Landmark Preservation, Inc., and pooled their efforts to raise money for the $25,000 asking price.
