Stowe Community Church stands on Main Street (Vermont Route 100) in Stowe, Vermont, United States. [1] [2] Completed in 1863, and standing opposite School Street, it is one of the most photographed churches in the country. [3] Its current congregation was formed after the uniting of the local Baptists, Congregationalists, Methodists and Universalists in 1918, making it a non-denominational church. [4]
A year after the church was completed, an organ in the W. B. Simmons style was purchased in Boston and installed in the balcony. [4]
After the unification of the congregations, the Universalists' parsonage was retained as the residence of the church's minister. [4]
The church's 75-foot (23 m)-tall spire was removed for repair in October 2024. [5] It was reinstalled the following April. [6]
