The door to the Knox Presbyterian Church in Burlington. Originally consecrated in 1845, the new sanctuary was built in 1877.

Oh, lovely! I especially like the pointed arch brickwork at the top – what a pretty detail!
Thanks as always for playing along at WWDD!

That door is awesome in a reflective way. The black is more somber that the red of Episcopal churches, perhaps the bark color allows us to redirect our energy toward worship inside. I suppose the Scots wanted to prepare us prior to our entrance…the brick surrounding the portal is stunning. Nice!
That’s a very serious looking door!
Very good shot.
Regards and best wishes
And I bet that door “clangs” beautifully in the key of C when it closes! Nice shot.
How very Presbyterian that cross is!
«Louis» thanks you for this fine contribution to Monday Doorways.
I love crosses and this celtic cross on the doors is lovely!
