Ebenezer Baptist Church

Member Rating: ***** 5.0 | Rate It

Fodor's Review:

A Gothic revival-style building completed in 1922, the church came to be known as the spiritual center of the civil rights movement. Members of the King family, including the slain civil rights leader, preached at the church for three generations. A tour of the church, which is managed by the National Park Service, includes an audiotape outlining the building's history. The congregation itself now occupies the building across the street. A federally funded restoration project is planned for the original church. Call before visiting.
