St. Adalbert Parish - designated for Polish immigrants in Enfield, Connecticut, United States. Founded in 1915, it is one of the Polish-American Roman Catholic parishes in New England in the Archdiocese of Hartford.

In 2017, St. Adalbert was merged with St. Patrick Parish in Enfield to form St. Raymond of Penafort parish. In 2022, the consolidated St. Raymond parish was merged into townwide parish under the name St. Jeanne Jugan parish.^[1] The St. Adalbert church building was closed to regularly scheduled worship soon after and was closed permanently on April 21, 2024.^[2]

On September 1, 1907, Bishop of Hartford, Michael Tierney made the priest Paul W. Piechocki responsible for the Polish immigrants.

Finally, the completed St. Adalbert Parish was dedicated by Bishop Maurice F. McAuliffe on July 8, 1928.
