First Congregational Church of Pescadero


The First Congregational Church of Pescadero, also known as the Pescadero Community Church, is a historic United Church of Christ on Stage Road, in Pescadero, California.
It was built in 1867 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The listing included the church building, and a contributing structure and a contributing site.
The shape of the church's tall steeple suggests Gothic Revival style, but wasn't added until 1890, being added by local carpenter and church member Charles Wilson. Otherwise the church has Classical Revival details.
It is significant as "the first church building to be constructed in the town of Pescadero solely for religious purposes. It is now the oldest, surviving wooden church building on its original site and in continuous church usage and without major renovations in the San Francisco Peninsula and Santa Clara Valley region."
