This rectangular stone church building, with its elegant stone tower of 154 feet, is one of the best examples of the Gothic renewal building style. The cornerstone was laid on 20 May 1882 and the building was officially inaugurated on 18 August 1883. The stone wall with iron trellice work was added in 1929.
