Шаблон:Infobox NRHP The Church of Saint Anthony in Casper, Wyoming, is a Roman Catholic church located at 604 S. Center Street. It is a Romanesque Revival building designed by architects Garbutt, Weidner, and Sweeney and built in 1919–20.

It replaced a predecessor wooden church, built following a successful fund-raising drive started in 1897 by several Irish immigrant women. Irish immigrants worked as shepherds in the area.[1]

The 1920 church is brick and marble upon a concrete foundation, with a full basement and a tile roof. The brick is laid in stretcher bond. Its "distinctive square bell tower, tile roof, round arched windows and corbel tables closely resemble churches in Italy and represents the Romanesque Revival architectural style.".[1]
