Saint Patrick Church is located on the corner of 10th Street and Liberty Street (Route 322) in Franklin, Pennsylvania. The first Catholic church in Franklin was built in 1865. The present church building was begun in 1879 and dedicated on May 21, 1882, during the tenure of the Rev. John Quincy Adams as pastor. A school was added to the parish in 1893. The church is constructed of red brick, with one tall steeple.
