On Sunday, April 30, 1905,St. Adalbert Church was dedicated by Archbishop Henry K. Moeller of Cincinnati.[2]

In 1954, parishioners build a new rectory and grotto shrine at the church.[2]

In 1961, preparations began for the building of a new St. Adalbert's church. On Holy Thursday, March 23, 1967, the first mass was held at the new church. It was dedicated on the Feast of St. Adalbert, April 23, 1967.[2] As of 2016, the school building and the Rectory have been sold. They have become a Community Center, as has the Magetti Funeral Home Property directly across Valley St. That property has become a local Mosque, accommodating the influx of a Muslim population in Dayton.
