Cumberland Presbyterian Church

The Cumberland Presbyterian Church exhibits classical architectural elements with its six wooden Greek Doric columns supporting a prominent front portico and stuccoed brick facade.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, the church features a T-shaped temple form that reflects mid-nineteenth century ecclesiastical design principles.

The structure represents American religious architecture and demonstrates how Greek Revival design influenced religious buildings in Missouri during the nineteenth century.

Located at 112 South 13th Street, the church maintains its role as both a religious gathering space and a museum displaying items from Lexington's past.

The building incorporates a distinctive tower configuration that combines a louvered belfry with a spire, setting it apart from other period churches.
