Cincinnati: First German Reformed Church

Constructed in 1850 as the First German Reformed Church in Cincinnati, Ohio, the church served the West End, a German-American neighborhood. The congregation folded in 1970 as the population declined and the demographics shifted, although it soon reopened under another congregation and title before closing all together in 1975. A community center purchased the property in 1993, although it has been vacant and deteriorating since.


Oh, I miss those warmer evenings.


The lighting on this very cold day wasn't all that great, but it works.
















Many areas of the facility have floors that have completely rotted to the joists, which are in poor structural condition. The owner has applied boards and plywood over many holes to provide a workaround.








And from today, another very cold afternoon.


The ceiling over the sanctuary is supported by large cables that attach to the rafters.


The stairs lead up to the bell.


Click through to First German Reformed Church for more photographs and history. Enjoy!

I had to look at number 8 twice! Although my version didn't handle the highlights quite like yours.

Gorgeous! Really makes me want to visit cinci for some splorin!!!

The blind lead the blind into bottomless pits,
Still we smile and deny that we're cursed.
But of all our iniquities ignorance may be the worst.
