  • When driving along Interstate 94 in central Minnesota, the church steeple in Freeport is visible from miles around. The Church of the Sacred Heart is part of a complex of Catholic buildings on the southeast edge of Freeport. The cornerstone for the church was laid in 1905, so it is over a century old. The Hess and Moog brickyard, which was located just south of St. Cloud, provided the cream-colored brick for the church. The church remains in very good shape for its age, and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places. How many Hess & Moog stamped bricks can you find on the church?

    Thanks for taking the time to make these enriching videos!
    I really appreciate you showing the "tags" from the brickyard laborers. It looks like the bricklayers respected these markings, at least the more obvious ones that didn't appear to be upside down.

    Music is just stupendous. Grew up near here so it is great to put some history to the area.

    I'd love a video about the first buildings at the University of Minnesota if you'd be so inclined
