These stained glass windows are located at Saint Vincent Basilica in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. Construction on the church was begun in 1891, and it was consecrated in 1905. It was named a minor basilica by Pope Pius XII in 1955.

The Spring 2006 edition of the Sacred Architecture Journal includes the following description of the stained glass at Saint Vincent Basilica: "After the plasterwork and interior were finished, the stained-glass windows were installed in 1900. They are the work of the Stoltzenberg Company of Munich, Bavaria. There are twenty-seven stained glass windows in the basilica. The Nativity, the Epiphany, the Child Jesus Teaching in the Temple, the Holy Family, the Baptism of Christ, the Transfiguration, Christ Blessing the Children, the Resurrection, the Ascension, the Descent of the Holy Spirit, Saint Boniface, the Pharisee and the Publican, the Sacred Heart, the Good Samaritan, Saint John the Baptist, the Good Shepherd, the Prodigal Son, and Saint Martin of Tours. There are also twenty-two tinted glass windows in the clerestory near the ceiling."
