St. Urban Church

Finished in 1891, St. Urban Church was originally called Our Lady of the Assumption and was founded by the Catholic Church. In 2010, local community members, including descendants of the original founders raised money to restore the church to near original condition. Today, Lewis County Parks Department maintains the property which is available to rent for weddings and similar ceremonies. It is located near Winlock on the corner of Sargent and Military road.
