The First Presbyterian Church of Aurora stands as a two-story rectangular Greek Revival structure with red brick walls painted in white, measuring 45 feet wide and 75 feet deep.
The church, designed by architect John R. Hamilton and completed in 1855, received its National Register of Historic Places designation on September 8, 1994.
The congregation, established in 1844 by the Presbytery of Madison, includes members from prominent local families who contributed to the development of Aurora.
