Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Parish Church

completed July 2011
Nestled against a quiet hillside on the outskirts of beautiful Truckee, CA, sits a new place for religious worship and community. Blessed with stunning views of the Sierra Nevada mountains and a gorgeous light-filled setting, the team has designed the site and building to maximize the connection to nature and the environment valued by Truckee residents and parishioners.

Finish HighlightsWard-Young has designed beautiful timber trusses, manufactured by Structurlam, into the nave and altar areas to add drama to the setting. See an album of the setting of these trusses by clicking on the link below.
