Summary
St. Leonard's Catholic Church and Rectory, constructed between 1902 and 1913 in Madison, are architecturally significant as representing the work of a prominent Nebraska architect, Jacob M. Nachtigall. A distinguished designer of Ecclesiastical architecture, Nachtigall designed mostly Catholic buildings in the state. The church is an outstanding example of the Romanesque Revival-style of architecture, with its massive articulated wall structures, round arches and powerful vaults. The rectory is designed in the Neo-Classical Revival-style of architecture.
