St. Matthias Mission is a historic rural Catholic mission church located near New Fane, Wisconsin. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. In the 1850s a cluster of immigrants from Bengel in the Rhineland settled around what is now called New Fane, engaging in farming. In 1861, 24 of these German-Catholic families built the nave of St. Matthias, of logs. At the consecration in 1863 the collection totaled 98 cents. For the first ten years St. Matthias was served by Rev. John (Johann Baptist) Reindl (1827–1891) of Immaculate Conception in West Bend. Some time before 1888 the log walls were covered with milled weatherboard. In 1888 the tower was added, with a frame of vertical posts and cross-timbers connected by mortise and tenon. Like the main church body, it is sheathed in weatherboard. In the tower hangs an 1883 bell and on top stands a cross. The church is currently taken care of by a private foundation. The interior of the church has been fully restored to its original condition and configuration. The church has regular late Sunday masses in the summer and a regular first Saturday mass every monthly. The local pastor from Holy Trinity Parish in Kewaskum, WI serves St. Matthias, as in the past.

St. John of God Roman Catholic Church, Convent, and School is a historic church near the unincorporated community of Boltonville in the Town of Farmington, Wisconsin. The church was built from Cream City brick in 1891, although the congregation has existed since the 1850s. The Town of Farmington was historically a German community, but the St. John of God congregation was organized by Irish immigrants who settled in the Boltonville area and elected not to join one of the town's German-speaking Catholic churches. In 1860, they constructed a church building which no longer exists and was replaced by the 1891 structure. In 1868, the Sisters of St. Agnes, a Catholic order founded in the Village of Barton, Wisconsin, built a school and a convent on the church property. The nuns served as public school teachers until at least 1892, and also taught parochial classes in the convent until 1879. Both buildings were abandoned around the turn of the century and were stripped for materials in the 1930s. Only the buildings' fieldstone-and-mortar walls remain. The site was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
