Church of St. Hyacinth in Detriot

The history of the Church of St. Hyacinth is quite similar to that of other parishes founded by Polish emigrants, this time mostly Kashubian. With a massive influx of immigrants the community of St. Albertus’s grew and the establishment of a new parish became an urgent necessity. The first Masses were held in Martin Tesmar’s house at the corner of McDougall and Theodore streets.
