The first St. Agnes Catholic Church was built in 1891 at the southeast corner of Church Street and Maple Street. On May 15, 1909 a devastating tornado tore off the roof and crumbled the walls, but by October 20, 1909 a new cornerstone was laid at this site. St. Agnes is now located at 855 East Grand River.
