Saint Cyril and Methodius Catholic Church - Shiner 1

Shiner, Texas

In 1887, settlers exited the first train to roll through Fayette County, and not long after the town of Shiner was born. Czech and Germans of the new town met and, after purchasing two acres of land east of the train tracks, a new church was planned.

The church we see today is one of the famed and beautiful painted churches - St. Cyril and Methodius Catholic Church. The first structure was completed May 31, 1891, but it did not last, as it was blown off its foundation by a tornado in 1892. Undeterred, the community did not abandon the building. Soon, the walls were straightened and the tower replaced.

As the town grew, more room became necessary for the parish to serve its people.

The structure standing today was designed by the architect, James Wahrenburger, in a beautiful Gothic style. The colorful stained glass shines with vibrant color, and rich, detailed frescoes bring the Garden of Gethsemane to life as it rises above the altar. Photo © copyright by Rob Greebon.
