"St. Francis Xavier Church 21370 Newtowne Neck Rd, Leonardtown MD 20650"

St. Francis Xavier-Newtowne

Built as a simple frame structure in 1731 so as not to be noticed at a time when Catholic practice was suppressed, St. Francis Xavier church’s simplicity has been its strength. While plain on the outside, the interior of the central wooden section of the church boasts a rare barrel vault ceiling. With the octagonal brick ends added a quarter century after first construction, St. Francis Xavier is a unique example of church architecture.
