Town Clock Church, Greek Revival church in New Albany, United States.
The Town Clock Church features a brick construction with a central tower that originally reached 160 feet in height at 300 East Main Street.
Built in 1852 as Second Presbyterian Church, this structure became a critical Underground Railroad station helping people escape from slavery across the Ohio River.
The building stands as a testament to the local community's involvement in supporting freedom seekers during the pre-Civil War period in Indiana.
Visitors can schedule guided tours and learn about the preservation efforts through the Friends of Town Clock Church organization.
The clock tower served as a navigation point for river boats, marking the separation between slave and free territories across the Ohio River.
