All Saints' Day: Classic Vermont Churches

Starksboro First Baptist Church

Lincoln United Church

First Congregational Church in Manchester Village

Weston Community Church

In honor of All Saints' Day, here are some photos of Vermont churches in Starksboro, Lincoln, Manchester and Weston. (I have a special affinity for the last photo -- I was married in the Weston Community Church in 2004).

Churches with white steeples or square cupolas are iconic landmarks in most of Vermont's 251 communities, and are generally located in village and town centers. The oldest church in Vermont is The Old First Church in Bennington, which was built in 1805.

  2. Nice theme!
    The churches and steeples of Vermont almost deserve their own site.
