The monthly architectural history program “Sandwiching in History” visits St. Edward Catholic Church, lodated at 801 Sherman Street.
In 1883 Bishop Edward Fitzgerald sanctioned the creation of St. Edward parish to accommodate the growing number of German Catholics in Little Rock. The current church, dedicated in 1905, was designed by Charles L. Thompson in the Gothic Revival style.
Sandwiching in History is a program of the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program, an agency of the Department of Arkansas Heritage.
This is an amazing sanctuary. I toured with Friends of Contemporary Craft a couple of years ago and it is incredible!
