First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) of Lockhart

Architecture·Caldwell County·Texas

Organized in 1852 with seven members, this congregation constructed its first sanctuary in 1858. Located across the street from this site, it soon became too small for the growing membership. In 1898, this Gothic revival building was designed and built by Tom Hodges, who served as the architect on several public buildings in Lockhart. The ornate sanctuary features lancet windows, decorative brickwork, and corner turrets. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1985
