Free Church of the Good Shepherd
Free Church of the Good Shepherd, Gothic church in downtown Raleigh, United States
The Free Church of the Good Shepherd is a small wooden building downtown with pointed arches and exposed wooden frames that display 19th-century craftsmanship. The interior keeps its simple character with functional details typical of that period.
The congregation formed in 1875 when a group split from Christ Episcopal Church to establish an independent religious community. This separation resulted from disputes over church practices and led to the creation of this separate congregation.
The Episcopal congregation maintains regular worship services and contributes to the preservation of 19th-century religious heritage in North Carolina.
The building sits on East Street in downtown Raleigh and is easy to reach on foot. Visitors can approach the exterior to admire the architecture and take photos.
The structure retains its original wooden elements and architectural details from 1875, demonstrating nineteenth-century craftsmanship and construction techniques.
