Saint Wendel is an unincorporated community located on the Vanderburgh-Posey county line in the U.S. state of Indiana.[1] It occupies small portions of two townships-- Armstrong and Robinson. The community is named for St. Wendel Parish, which in turn is named after Wendelin of Trier, patron saint of Wendel Wassmer, who originally owned the grounds used for this Catholic church building.
