Autaugaville United Methodist Church

207 Autauga St. (off CR 21), Autaugaville, AL 36003

Autauga County

Organized as a church in 1822, Autaugaville’s Methodists erected this Greek Revival style church building in 1845. At that time, Autaugaville served the plantations and farms located on the rich bottom lands of the Alabama River. Greek Revival features include the in antis (recessed) portico with two box Tuscan columns and four pilasters. The double staircase leads to two doors. The church remains much as constructed and showcases a rare crown of thorns steeple. The church grounds include a small, ornate fence that encloses the cemetery.

The church continues an active ministry offering Sunday worship services.
