Christ Church

Christ Church is a Victorian-era structure in Stevensville built in 1880 and displays various architectural details from that period. The roof is covered in slate, while the sides feature multiple stained glass windows in a pointed arch style that gives the building its distinctive look.

The congregation was founded in the 1630s at Kent Point and built its fourth church building in 1880. This structure represents the final form of a parish that had stood at that location for more than two centuries.

The church continues to serve as a place of worship and shows architectural choices typical of nineteenth-century church design. Visitors can observe how these choices shape the interior and exterior appearance.

The building is located in downtown Stevensville and is open for services and visitor access. Parking is available nearby, and the church has a large cemetery on the grounds that visitors can walk through.

Excavations at the cemetery uncovered the foundation stones of an earlier church from 1652, along with gravestones spanning many decades. These discoveries reveal that this location has a much longer religious history than the current building suggests.
