A History of the Metamora Methodist Church
Metamora became the first legally organized village in Fulton County, Ohio when it was platted and recorded by Hezekiah Culver in 1851. Settlers had manifested interest in starting a Methodist Church as early as 1848. On June 5, 1853, a Sunday School was begun and in the fall of 1854, the first organized worship services were held. A white frame church with a tall steeple was begun on April 5, 1868. It burned in 1894, and a new building was erected in 1895, with a new classroom section added in 1924.
The Metamora Methodist Church erected in 1895.
In 1956 the congregation began a campaign for a new sanctuary.
In September of 1959 a new sanctuary was built. The first services were held in the new sanctuary on July 24, 1960, and the building was consecrated on November 13, 1960 by Bishop Hazen G. Werner.
The Metamora Methodist Church built in 1959.
A sad decline:
Though the church congregation lives on and practices their faith in a somewhat less traditional religious format, the church building itself suffered contamination by black mold during the early 2000s. The building was not repaired and was abandoned in 2005.
On July 16, 2024, the upper northwestern third of the church's exterior wall collapsed. It landed on a combination of Main Street and a parked car. Subsequently, the local fire department removed the remaining two thirds of the exterior wall. The building is now roped off for safety and security.
