Saint Francis De Sales Catholic Church is located at 2900 Woodburn Avenue in the East Walnut Hills neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States.

The cornerstone was laid June 30, 1878, by Archbishop John Baptist Purcell, in the presence of nearly 10,000 persons.

The church is home to Joseph, aka "Big Joe", which is the largest swinging bell ever cast in the United States.

It was soon decided to immobilize the bell, and for more than a century "Big Joe" has relied on a foot hammer striking its rim.
