The original Providence Baptist
Church was built approximately
two and a half miles northwest
of Chappell Hill. This building
was destroyed by a violent
storm in 1866. Part of the
congregation continued to meet
in the Presbyterian Church in
Chappell Hill until the present
building was completed in
1873.

Visitors can view an interior
baptistry under the pulpit and
separate dressing rooms for
men and women.

The Church became Society
property in 1996, has been
restored and is included in the
National Register's Historical
District of Chappell Hill.
