Earlysville Union Church

Earlysville Union Church is a rare surviving

early-19th-century interdenominational church

constructed in Albemarle County. Built in

1833, this frame structure served as a

meetinghouse for all Christian denominations

on land deeded by John Early, for whom

Earlysville is named. This building provided

an early home for several local congregations

of the Baptist, Methodist, and Presbyterian

faiths. The church is an excellent example of

the 19th-century public architecture of rural

Piedmont Virginia. It was listed on the Virginia

Landmarks Register and the National Register

of Historic Places in 1997.

Marker is on Earlysville Road (County Route 743) just south of Advance Mills Road (County Route 663), on the left when traveling north.
