St. Joseph's ({{lang-pl|Kościół Świętego Józefa}}) is a historic church of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago located in Chicago, Illinois at 4821 South Hermitage Avenue. It is a prime example of the Polish Cathedral style of churches in both its opulence and grand scale. Along with St. John of God, it is one of two monumental religious edifices that dominates the skyline of the Back of the Yards neighborhood.

History

Initially a mission of St. Mary of Perpetual Help, St. Joseph's was organized in 1887 as the first Polish parish in the Back of the Yards. Its patron saint proved very appropriate as the parish long served a congregation of immigrant workers near the Union Stockyards. In the beginning of the 20th century, the Polish population in the Back of the Yards increased so greatly that two other Polish parishes were formed from St. Joseph's parish—St. John of God, in 1906, and Sacred Heart, in 1910.[1] Like most of the Poles who settled in Chicago's Southwest Side, many of the first parishioners of St. Joseph's were Gorals, or Polish Highlanders, from the Carpathian Mountains. Although the Union Stockyards closed in the early 1970s and some Polish immigrants moved from the Back of the Yards neighborhood, St. Joseph's still celebrates Mass in Polish, as well as a Mass in English and three in Spanish for the present-day residents from Latin America who live there.

In 1990, St. Joseph was one of four Back of the Yards parishes to survive Diocesan budget cuts. The others - Sacred Heart of Jesus at 4600 South Honore Street, St. Rose of Lima Church at 1456 West 48th Street, Sts. Cyril and Methodius at 5009 South Hermitage, and St. Augustine Church at 5045 South Laflin, closed that year.[2][3][4]

St. Joseph celebrated its 125th anniversary with a Mass and celebration on September 1, 2012.[5]

Architecture

The imposing Baroque church was designed by Joseph Molitor in 1914 with a seating capacity of 1,200. Molitor also created the plans for two neighboring Roman Catholic churches in the Back of the Yards neighborhood of Chicago founded by Eastern European immigrants—Holy Cross Church which served a Lithuanian congregation and the now closed Sts. Cyril and Methodius church, constructed by a Bohemian congregation.
