Mount Vernon Place United Methodist Church and Asbury House
Mount Vernon Place United Methodist Church and Asbury House, Gothic Revival church in Mount Vernon Place Historic District, Baltimore, United States.
The Mount Vernon Place United Methodist Church features three spires, a green metabasalt exterior, and brownstone ornamental elements near the Washington Monument.
Construction of the church began in 1850 and finished in 1872, marking the location where Francis Scott Key spent his final moments in 1843.
The sanctuary includes a large rose window that follows the design patterns of Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, incorporating French architectural elements.
The main sanctuary provides seating for 900 people, while the adjacent Asbury House contains a second-floor library with German artisan decorations.
The building's metabasalt construction material creates a distinctive green coloration that sets it apart from other religious structures in Baltimore.
