Summary

This architecturally significant property contains a 1914 Gothic Revival church, a 1921 school, a chapel and several contributing grottoes and shrines dedicated in the 1930s. Together the buildings and objects create a district that exemplifies the evolving aesthetics and design principles of Dwight's Czech community over a period of three decades. The large scale of the church in relation to the community it serves is testament to its local significance.
