It is the oldest existing church in the city of Detroit,[2] and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1971.[1][2] HistoryIn 1844, Bishop Peter Paul Lefevere, who served as coadjutor bishop of the Diocese of Detroit, began construction on Saints Peter and Paul Church; the cornerstone is dated June 29, 1844.[2] Francis Letourneau drew the plans and Peter Kindenkens supervised the construction.[2] Construction was completed over four years, as the bishop paid for each stage of construction with cash.[3] The church was consecrated on June 29, 1848, and Bishop Lefevere used the church as his cathedral until his death in 1869.[3] The original parishioners were predominantly Irish, with some French families attending.[3] Following Lefevere's death, Caspar Borgess, the second Bishop of Detroit, used the church as his cathedral until 1877,[11] when he gave the title to the building to the Jesuit Order with the intention of starting Detroit's first Catholic college.[2] The Jesuit college eventually became the University of Detroit-Mercy, and UDM's law school still occupies the building adjacent to the church.[2] The church was altered in 1879 and 1882, completely renovated in 1892,[2] and remodeled again in 1911.[15] A chapel was added to the rear of the building in 1918.[15] Although these alterations changed the look of the church, the original plan has been substantially preserved.[2] The church is still in use, offering daily masses.[2] DescriptionSaints Peter and Paul Church is a basilica-style church, made with walls of painted brick.[4] The front façade is gabled and topped by a short square cupola.[4] The cupola was originally intended to support a tall spire, which was never built.[3] There is a central entrance pavilion, set between arched windows and Ionic pilasters.[4] The pilasters continue along the side, separating the side elevation into seven bays with tall, rounded arch windows.[4] A heavy frieze conceals the sloping roof.[5] The interior of the church features hand-carved oak confessionals, a barrel vaulted ceiling painted with frescoes,[3] and an extraordinary Carrara marble altar designed by Gustave Adolph Mueller.[6] These details were added during later renovations; the organ case is the only surviving original element.[5] GallerySee also
