St. Patrick Church is located in Imogene, Iowa. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

The marble in the altar was imported from Italy a second time, after the first shipment sank in the Brittanica during World War One. Love of God, country and family is visibly displayed in the stained glass windows that adorn the church. The craftmanship of the church windows was the creation of Italian glass masters which had been comissioned on behalf of families residing in Imogene.
