History of the Metamora Christian Church
	The land for this church was donated by Mr. Henry Pond and a church was built and dedicated Christmas, 1871. The building was in continuous use as a Christian Church until 1970, at which time the congregation moved to a new structure in upper Metamora.
Baptism at this church was conducted in the canal out front. The building was abandoned for several reasons, the major cause being inaccessibility. With the coming of a new restored canal boat (The Valley Belle) a foot bridge, across the canal in front of the church had to be removed creating a serious parking problem for the congregation. Secondly, the continuous flooding of Duck Creek had seriously undermined the back- foundation of the structure. To insure that the building would not be destroyed, it was converted to an antique ship and thus preserved as a community landmark. The vertical sun dial in the circular ornamentation of the bell tower is a creditable example of unobtrusive change.
