Description
Late afternoon view towards the main entrance to the Evangelical Lutheran Church on Church Street in the Historic District of downtown Frederick, Maryland. Founded in 1738 by Pastor John Stoever as the Lutheran Church in Monocacy, its storied history includes a visit by John Adams in June 1800, then Second President of the United States. The current church was completed and dedicated in 1855 and was pressed into service in 1862 during the Civil War as one of many local "hospitals" to care for Union and Confederate wounded after the Battles of South Mountain and Antietam. The twin steeples flanking the main door to the church narthex make it one of the crowned jewels among Frederick's clustered spires.

Fantastic!

Thank you, Johanna. Although Frederick, MD, the U.S. as well, doesn’t have the length of history as yet as other countries, it still has plenty to tell. I’m glad you enjoyed this shot. - Mike

Thank you, Barb. Altho Frederick has become the second largest city in Maryland, the old town still retains its wonderful charm. - Mike
