Additional Description: “The Reformed congregation acquired this land in 1764 (Lot 88). An early church, built of logs & siding, sat near the front of the present cemetery, known as the "Old Yellow Church". The Lutherans worshiped here also until their own church was completed in 1813. A union church was built on this site in 1822 (Presbyterian & Reformed). The present structure dates from about 1890. Extensive remodeling and additions have occurred through the years. The comer towers are offset by an impressive gable section with round arch openings; Romanesque in style. ” — Taneytown Walking Tour Pamphlet.
