Raisin Valley Friends Meetinghouse
Raisin Valley Friends Meetinghouse, Religious gathering place in Adrian Charter Township, Michigan.
The Raisin Valley Friends Meetinghouse stands at 3552 North Adrian Highway, featuring traditional wooden construction with simple architectural elements and large windows.
Local settler David Baker donated six acres of land in 1834, enabling the congregation to raise 800 dollars for constructing this church building.
The meetinghouse served as a significant station in Michigan's Underground Railroad network and housed the Raisin Institute founded by Charles and Laura Smith Haviland.
The building received additions in 1947 with a basement construction, followed by structural expansions in 1953 and 1961 to accommodate growing community needs.
This structure houses Michigan's oldest Quaker congregation, established in 1831, and ranks as the state's second oldest continuously operating church after Mission Church.
