Description
The picturesque ruins of Saint Dominic Catholic Church and Cemetery is located at Old D'Hanis, Texas. The Saint Dominic congregation formed in 1847 with the founding of the D'Hanis colony by settlers from Alsace, France. In 1853, when the town became a mission parish, this limestone church was built using timber hauled by ox-wagon from the Medina River. The cemetery, dating from the burial of a child of the colonists in 1847, was used until 1893, when a new cemetery was started following a diphtheria epidemic.
