Mount Calvary is a village in Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin, United States.

Mount Calvary's location was chosen by missionary Casper Rehrl; he selected the large hill because of its excellent view and he placed a wood cross.

[6] Riehl held the community's first mass circa 1849 at the home of John Dietzen.

[7] A parish was established in Mount Calvary by Rehrl on February 2, 1849; construction of the church began on the following day.

[10] Two priests arrived on October 15, 1856, to establish a monastery (it later became the St. Lawrence Seminary High School).

[11] A post office was built in November 1877; Anthony Rothgery was named first postmaster.

[14] Mount Calvary is located in an eastern Fond du Lac County, Wisconsin area known as "The Holyland", so-called because of the large number of communities built around churches, including St. Peter, St.

Cloud, St. Anna, Marytown, Johnsburg, Calvary, Brothertown and Jericho.
