Built in 1864-1869, this Romanesque Revival-style church located at 120 West Johnson Street in Madison, Wisconsin, was designed by John Nader for the congregation of the Holy Redeemer Catholic Church. The church was once the second oldest Catholic Church in Madison, and was the second parish organized in the city, being established by German Catholics in 1857, and initially located in a smaller building on the same site. The edifice was built in the Latin cross plan and is clad in sandstone with a gabled roof with side gables towards the rear at the transepts, a centrally placed bell tower with a wooden belfry featuring arched louvers, bracketed eaves, arched dormers with clock faces, a slate shingle-clad spire topped by a finial and cross, pilasters at the corners of the building, Roman arched stained glass windows and door transoms, small rose windows on the tower below the belfry and on the gable ends of the transepts, six-over-six double-hung windows on the first floor, a cupola at the crossing between the nave and transepts, and a rear apse with beveled corners. The stained glass windows, belfry, and steeple were added as the congregation continued to grow in size and wealth, and in 1892, a parochial school was built immediately southwest of the original church. The church today is the oldest remaining Catholic Church in Madison, following the destruction of St. Raphael's Cathedral due to arson in 2005.

The church is a contributing structure in the Mansion Hill Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
