The Model

The First Baptist Church was first organized in Terre Haute in 1837. The church pictured in the above postcard was opened in 1916 at 201 South Sixth Street. Unusual for a church, the building also contained a gymnasium and a swimming pool. The last service was held in 1968 when a new church was opened at 4701 Poplar Street. The Associated Physicians & Surgeons Clinic was built on the old site.
