St. Joseph's Church, commissioned by Bishop Jean-Marie Odin in 1859, stands as Galveston's oldest wooden church, a Gothic revival gem built by German carpenter Joseph Bleicke. Originally serving the German Catholic community, it now symbolizes the enduring legacy of German immigrants in shaping Galveston and Texas.
