Old Stone Church First Presbyterian Church, more commonly known as Old Stone Church, is the oldest standing structure on Public Square. Its congregation was formed in 1820 when Cleveland was a village of a few hundred people.

Shrine Church of St. Stanislaus Most Reverend Richard Gilmour, Bishop of Cleveland, formed the congregation of St Stanislaus by an official act in 1873. In 1876 Amasa Stone, owner of the Newburgh Rolling Mills, advertised in Poland for workers. Thousands of Poles answered this call and migrated to the Newburgh area of Cleveland. By 1885 there were about 600 Polish families in the area. The cornerstone of this church was laid in 1886 and the structure was completed in 1891. The church was substantially rebuilt after being struck by a tornado in 1909.
