From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stowe Community Church stands on Main Street (Vermont Route 100) in Stowe, Vermont, United States.[1][2] Completed in 1863, and standing opposite School Street, it is one of the most photographed churches in the country.[3] Its current congregation was formed after the uniting of the local Baptists, Congregationalists, Methodists and Universalists in 1918, making it a non-denominational church.[4]

A year after the church was completed, an organ in the W. B. Simmons style was purchased in Boston and installed in the balcony.[4]
After the unification of the congregations, the Universalists' parsonage was retained as the residence of the church's minister.[4]
The church's 75-foot (23 m)-tall spire was removed for repair in October 2024.[5] It was reinstalled the following April.[6]
