The Church was built by local Italian-Americans who immigrated to this country in the mid to late 1800's.

Many Italianate features that can be detected in this church, are the many statues, the Stations of the Cross which were built in Italy, the Altar which is made of marble from Italy, and the intricate stain glass windows on the sides of the church, as well as the five behind the altar depicting, from L-R, St. Peter, The Last Supper, The Risen Christ, The Crucifixion, and St. Paul.

University of Notre Dame football coach, Knute Rockne, was married in this church in 1914.

Peter & Paul Catholic Church celebrates their parish feast day on June 29, the Solemnity of Sts.

These two leading saints are considered the founders of the See of Rome, through their preaching, ministry, and martyrdom there.

There are two stain glass windows behind the sanctuary in the center apse featuring St. Peter & St. Paul.

Also, you may find two statues in the South apse near the Holy Face Of Jesus, of St. Peter & St. Paul.

The festival was permanently cancelled in the late 2000's due to lack of involvement and interest.
