Description
Old St. Peter's Landmark is an historic, Gothic red-brick church built in 1897 and saved from demolition in 1971. The steeple rises 176 feet in the air and is topped by a six-foot weather-vane rooster crafted by Frank S. Gunning. The steeple was used as a navigational tool by steamboat captains on the Columbia River. Among the many unique features of the church are the lion heads that watch from the downspouts of the steeple, the 34 stained glass windows made by Povey Brothers of Portland, Oregon; the Kilgen pipe organ made of rare tigerwood, and the serene Madonna carved from the keep of a ship sunk off the coast of the San Francisco coast in the early 1850s.
