Description
First Presbyterian Church at 609 SE 2nd St. According to the church's website: ""First Presbyterian Church began in 1821 as the first religious community in the pioneer town of Evansville, Indiana. Today, as a result of unions and reunions of three congregations, First Pres stands as a united witness of varied backgrounds worshiping together and serving the Evansville community. The church�s first building was a log house, built in 1817, on First Street between Oak and Mulberry Streets in downtown Evansville. In 1832, the �Little Church on the Hill� was constructed on Second Street where the former Strouse and Brothers building now stands (a commemorative plaque is attached to the structure). The church�s current building was dedicated in 1874 and has been in constant use ever since.""
