Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church (Mobile, Alabama) church building in Alabama, United States of America

Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church is a historic African Methodist Episcopal Church congregation in Mobile, Alabama, United States.

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 29, 1987, due to its architectural and historic significance.
