Saint Anthony's Catholic Church is a historic church building at 470 North Wilson Avenue, just north of the crossroads community of Ratcliff, Arkansas. It is a single-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof and weatherboard siding. A square tower projects from the center of the main facade, capped by a pyramidal roof and cross, with gablets on each side. The main entrance is at the center of the tower, sheltered by a hood with a similar style as the tower roof. The church was built in 1903 under the auspices of the local Subiaco Abbey as a mission serving arriving German Catholic immigrants. [2]
The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. [1]
