Montgomery, United States · built 1923
The First Baptist Church is a Southern Baptist megachurch in Montgomery, Alabama. The First Baptist Church building is located downtown on South Perry Street. Founded in 1829, it had a mixed congregation (consisting of enslaved and free blacks as well as whites) until 1867 when most African-American members (themselves often the slaves of the white congregants) branched off to found their own church, initially called "First Baptist Church, colored" a few blocks away on Ripley Street.
