St. Peter’s was the first Catholic Church built in Montgomery. And since its beginning in 1834, the church has unceasingly provided an active Catholic presence in Montgomery. From the eve of the Civil War to the dawning of the civil rights movement, St. Peter’s location has enabled the church to be a witness to monumental events that have shaped Alabama and the nation’s history. The 180th Anniversary of the church was held on April 25, 2014.
