Trinity Episcopal Church
Established by the Rev. Caleb S. Ives
The first church building, a frame structure
built in 1857, was burned by Federal troops
during their occupation of Demopolis.
The present church building was erected in
1870 and forms the nave. The transepts were
added in 1896 and the bell tower in 1910.
While camped in Demopolis, the Rt. Reverend
Leonidas Polk, Bishop of Louisiana and Lieut
General of the Confederate Army, often
worshipped at Trinity.
