Historic Christ Church
| A Lutheran Church in the Evangelical Catholic Tradition |
| A Lutheran Church in the Catholic Tradition |
Historic Christ Church is a
superb example of the Queen
Anne style of ecclesiastical
architecture and also one of
the most carefully preserved
Victorian Churches in
Maryland. Built in 1880 as an
Anglican church, it is
distinguished by a steep
slate roof, and an unusual
chimney designed in the
medieval “lancet” style that
dates back to the 13th
century. Wooden pegs
instead of nails, and bricks
from the church's
predecessor, the old Christ
Church at Broad Creek
(dating from 1652), were
used to build the structure.

The church’s dramatic interior
is dominated by the steeply
pitched ceiling that rises
heavenward above the
congregation and is
supported by open, stick-style
trusses that divide the
building into four bays.

Worship space always has a great influence on the question how we
worship and on the overall worship experience. Once you enter
Historic Christ Church, you cannot help but notice the sacred beauty
that surrounds you. The church seats 100 people, and its size creates
a very familiar atmosphere.
