St. Jean-Baptiste Church

Duluth, MN
Story by Judy L

It was a place of beauty – the only beautiful place I ever went when l was a young person growing up. I loved the stained glass windows. When my husband and I were planning our wedding/concert there (my husband played the trumpet and did so at our wedding), the priest said, “Your parents will pay for any damage that happens to those stained glass windows because of that trumpet.” So during my wedding, my mother kept staring at the stained glass windows, hoping they wouldn’t break. It was demolished in 1996. https://www.duluthnewstribune.com/news/news-tribune-attic-au-revoir-st-jean-baptiste
