Saint John United Church of Christ, Louisville

Saint John United Church of Christ was founded in 1843 by the German community of imigrants who came to Louisville. Initially, the church was called Saint John's Evangelische Kirche. The present church was built later, in 1867, to replace the first, smaller one. The church is in Gothic Revival style. In 1885, the first bells and the tower clock were attached. The beautiful steeple was installed in 1966, at the 100th celebration of the sanctuary. The interior of the church has a fabulous organ and numerous frescoed windows reflecting scenes from the bible.
