Ebenezer Missionary Baptist Church
Ebenezer Missionary Baptist Church, Baptist church in Auburn, Alabama
The Ebenezer church building consists of hand-hewn logs transported by mules, with a traditional wooden structure at the intersection of Thach Street and Auburn Drive South.
The congregation established this church as the first African American religious building in the Auburn area following the Civil War conclusion in 1865.
The building represents the determination of the post-Civil War African American community, who constructed their place of worship through collective effort and dedication.
The Auburn Heritage Association restored the structure in 1970, and the building now serves as home to the Auburn Unitarian Universalist Fellowship.
The church members transported logs from distant locations using mule-drawn carts to construct their sacred space between 1865 and 1870.
