This Catholic church, completed in 1895, has twin towers which can be seen for miles. A school was constructed in 1896 and operated as a parochial school until 1935.[2] The church received official recognition with the erection of an official Texas Historical Marker on December 31, 1978. On May 15, 1996, the community was recognized as the Westphalia Rural Historic District. The district is now listed in the National Register of Historic Places.[3][4] References1. ^{{NRISref|version=2010a}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Visitation, Church Of The}}2. ^WESTPHALIA, TEXAS Handbook of Texas Online 3. ^Parish History The Church of the Visitation Website 4. ^WESTPHALIA, TEXAS Texas Escapes 5 : Roman Catholic churches in Texas|Roman Catholic churches on the National Register of Historic Places in Texas|Buildings and structures in Falls County, Texas|Historic district contributing properties in Texas|National Register of Historic Places in Falls County, Texas |
