Down Dekalb Street, this church is a beautiful example of Greek Revival architecture, and was built in 1863 as Trinity Evangelical Lutheran church, replacing an 1849 church (note date stones in facade).  This building was renovated at the turn of the century by Louis Comfort Tiffany and boasts Tiffany stained glass windows, a Tiffany glass mosaic, and an alabaster and gilt-bronze altar rail.
