First United Methodist Church, Oklahoma City

First United Methodist Church, Oklahoma City

The church is located close to the City National Memorial at the corner of Robinson Avenue and 4th Street. The original structure was built at the end of the 19th century, after the Land Run of 1889. This historic church is a witness of the nation’s most challenging events. Its sanctuary and adjacent education building was badly damaged by the bombing in April 1995, and was essentially rebuilt and significantly enlarged.

The distinguished configuration of this church includes built-in corner and central towers of different shapes. The brick structure with white elements features an imposing portico entrance introducing the grand staircase, a significant rose window both on the front facade and its western side, and stained-glass windows.
