Unitarian Universalist Church of Medford and the Osgood House, Religious building in Medford, United States
The Unitarian Universalist Church of Medford is a religious building in Medford, Massachusetts, featuring gray granite walls with red granite accents. The structure connects to the Osgood House built in 1785, which now serves for church activities and community gatherings.
The congregation started in 1690 as a Puritan parish church. The current Gothic Revival building was completed in 1894 from designs by architect J. Merrill Brown.
The interior showcases a tri-partite Gothic stained glass window by F.M. Whipple & Co depicting Christ and the Woman of Samaria. This artistic choice reflects what the congregation valued in their worship space and spiritual expression.
The High Street entrance features a covered vehicle entry area for convenient access. The grounds include the adjoining Osgood House, where you can explore spaces used for community gatherings and activities.
The sanctuary roof is supported by heavy timber scissor trusses that shape the interior space. The chancel platform preserves its original hand-carved oak Gothic pulpit and furnishings from when the building was completed.
