St. John’s

United Methodist Church

Built 1917

Constructed of locally quarried tufa stone, this is the second building constructed for the Methodist congregation, Kingman's oldest organized religious group. The use of the Roman temple form with six Tuscan columns on a raised podium with pediment metal railings is rare for the Neo-Classical Revival period. This is the best example of this type in Arizona. Movie stars Clark Gable and Carole Lombard were married here on March 29, 1939.

Marker is at the intersection of North 5th Street and East Spring Street, on the right when traveling north on North 5th Street.
