For more than a century, 68 stained glass windows in Canton Lutheran Church (CLC) have shined. Located at 124 E. 2nd Street in Canton, the church was built in 1908 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002.

Complimented with the reddish pink hue of the Sioux quartzite, the stained-glass windows have always been beautiful works of art on their own. And their unique relationship with natural light and the stories they depict make them striking.
