Welcome to
The Shrine of Santa Rita
Built in 1935 in memory of Dr. Jokichi Takamine (1854-1922) by his widow, Caroline Takamine Beach. It is the only Catholic Church in the United States built in memory of a Japanese citizen.
Special thanks to Anthony Mata for providing the beautiful drone footage featured on our website.
