Columbia Baptist Church

Columbia Baptist Church is a historic church at 25514 Royalton Road in Columbia Center, Ohio. The church was built in 1900 for the local Baptist congregation, which formed in 1832 and had previously used a wood-frame building for its church. The congregation built their church from locally quarried sandstone and gave it a design which combined the Stick Style and Queen Anne style. The church features an intersecting gable roof, a gothic arched stained glass window next to the main entrance, and several smaller stained glass windows illustrating Bible scenes. Its 77 feet (23 m) bell tower has a bell-shaped roof and is the tallest structure in Columbia Center.[2]
