1207 Broadway

 

Organized in 1869, First Lutheran Church and School has had two prior locations: at Broadway and Western Avenue (the old L&N station) and at Fifth Avenue and Broadway. The Francis house, at Broadway and Wells, was purchased and services were held in the house until the school building was completed in 1947. The current Gothic style building was dedicated on May 15, 1955. A major renovation project was completed in 1979 with the addition of another school wing. The church continues to be involved in the inner-city neighborhood, both physically and spiritually.
