Luther Place Memorial Church in DC with Eye-Catching Masonry

In the Thomas Circle park and not very far from the National Church stood the Luther Place Memorial Church that was an absolutely stupendous and impressive Church. I was in awe of the ambiance of this church and even more blown away by the impressive exterior.

The building appeared historic and I later learned that it has been in existence since the Civil War. This is a beautiful looking building. I did not see it inside but the artistic masonry was eye-catching. I loved the old-time church feeling that I got here and reminded me of a church in Salisbury Park in Pune that goes by the name Seventh Day Adventist Church.

Although the architecture was fantastic and the location great for it had access also from the Vermont Ave there was no real parking there. A few cars were seen parked on the side of the road. Nevertheless, it was a nice church right on the corners of three intersections a befitting location that really a representation of the stunning Thomas Circle in Washington D.C.

Have you been to a church with some fascinating architecture? I’d be interested in knowing your experiences.

Until then… Happy Guiding ?

@KalyanPal Good choice - but it is not possible to escape the other places since they are all in one area and located next to one another :blush:

Thanks, @TusharSuradkar bhai, for tagging me in such a wonderful post.

I didn’t visit any church in Karachi yet, but here we have a beautiful example of unique architecture Frere Hall, which was made in the British Era. And we oftenly visit here, even I hosted many Local Guides meet-ups here to explore this impressive architecture more by our cameras.

@KashifMisidia first, congratulation on becoming CMs, wonderful job and contribution.

Second, the photo you have shared here is so beautiful!

@TusharSuradkar thanks for bringing this topic here. I visited a few churches in NZ with similar style. Sadly, my photos of 2015 in my Canon is gone somewhere with the wind that I cannot find or retrieve back!

Hi @Sophia_Cambodia

Losing photos is always disheartening.

I had lost the photos of an entire trip to a US city, and will never be visiting that place again :disappointed_relieved:
