Old White Church Cemetery, Schuylkill County

Old White

Church Cemetery

Ringtown

Erected in 1842 by Ringtown Valley settlers and formally named St. Paul's Union Church, it is the oldest religious structure in

Schuylkill County located north of the Broad Mountain. This unaltered "meeting house" style structure replaced an earlier

log church built circa 1810. A total restoration project was completed here during the 1990's. The historic "Old White Church"

is maintained by the Lutheran and U.C.C. (Reformed) Churches of Ringtown. It was placed on the National Register of

Historic Places in April of 1995.
