St. Clement Catholic Church was built in 1917–1918 in Lincoln Park in Chicago. The architect was Thomas P. Barnett of the St. Louis firm of Barnett, Haynes & Barnett.^[1]

The church was built in a Byzantine style reminiscent of the church of Hagia Sophia in Istanbul.^[2][3][4] The decoration of the half-dome behind the high altar is a copy of the twelfth- or thirteenth-century mosaic in the apse of the Basilica of San Clemente al Laterano in Rome. The ground to begin building the church was broken on March 19, 1917.^[5]

St. Clement School

The church is also affiliated with a school, for which ground was broken on October 18, 1905.^[6] The school used to be both a church and a school before the current church was built. Saint Clement School serves children in Pre-kindergarten through 8th grade with a total of over 460 students.^[7]
