CHAPTER I. 1. St. Mary’s Catholic, 1846. 844 North Broadway (at East Kilbourn Avenue) Architect: Victor Schulte. Milwaukee’s two oldest extant churches, St. Mary’s Catholic and St. John’s Catholic Cathedral, predate Wisconsin’s admission to the Union as the country’s 30th state in 1848.
As early as the 1840s, German immigrants stamped Milwaukee with their architectural mark. At old St. Mary’s, north and south side walls, a low-pitched hipped roof, and round-arched windows typify the Zopfstil, an orderly, symmetrical, late neoclassical mode of church design that rejected the showy Baroque and Rococo.
