St. Martin Roman Catholic


St. Martin Roman Catholic Church N. Fulton Ave. and W. Fayette Ave.
Originally built in the 1850's, St. Martin's was one of several Catholic churches in south-west Baltimore. Many of its members worked at the B&O railroad manufacturing  and repair yards several blocks south of the church.  In 1873 Pomplitz installed  the church's second  pipe organ. The case and many ranks were reused in the present 1924 Casavant. St. Martin's recently merged with two other nearby congregations and the building has been closed.
