Hobart, IN

from Indiana: A New Historical Guide:
The First Unitarian Church, 497 Main St., was the first church erected on town property when dedicated in January 1876. Hobart's Unitarians officially organized in 1874, meeting in a schoolhouse. The congregation leased a hall until the present church was completed. A.D. Pollard and Company constructed the ivy-covered brick building of traditional Gothic design. A parish hall in the back was added in 1956. The church cupola contains a very old bell cast in England and presented to the Hobart church by United States Senator George F. Hoar of Massachusetts from the sister Unitarian church at Concord.
Why I put a picture here: I think it's pretty.
