Coeur d'Alene Mission of the Sacred Heart is a historic church mission school off U.S. 95 in Desmet, Idaho.

The mission was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.[1]

De Smet mission school

The mission was destroyed by fire in 2011.[2]

The NRHP-listed building was a major schoolhouse which had been built in two phases. Its three-story front section was built after 1900. A smaller hip-roofed two-story brick structure, connected at the rear, was built after 1877.[3]

At the time of NRHP listing, the first floor of another early structure survived in a two-story building, but was not deemed eligible for NRHP listing.[3]

The original chapel of the mission was destroyed in a 1939 fire.[3]
