Inscription. Designed by noted Philadelphia architect Edwin Forrest Durand, the church was built in 1865 by Cornelius Arnett. An 1895 renovation added the rounded arch entrance as well as second level stained glass windows. The church contributes to the significance of the Lambertville Historic District as an example of Romanesque Revival architecture. Name changed to Centenary United Methodist Church in 1968 as part of a denominational merger.

Erected by Garden State Historic Preservation Trust.
