Saint John the Baptist Church (Columbus, Ohio)
Saint John the Baptist Church is a Catholic national parish church of the Diocese of Columbus located in the Italian Village neighborhood of Columbus, Ohio. The congregation was founded in 1896 to serve Italian-American immigrants and initially met at St. Joseph Cathedral before the completion of the Late Gothic Revival church in 1898. The church was staffed by priests of the Pontifical Institute for Foreign Missions from 1949 to 1991, and became a hub of Italian-American culture in central Ohio, founding and sponsoring the Columbus Italian Festival in 1980 as well as constructing an Italian Cultural Center in 1989. It has been jointly administered with Sacred Heart Church in nearby Victorian Village since 2022.
