Presbyterian Church #1

April 21, 2015

The historic Presbyterian Church, located at the corner of 6th and California streets, is one of Jacksonville’s most striking examples of Victorian Gothic architecture. Brick mason, George Holt, laid the foundation; carpenter David Linn constructed the wood frame, roof and belfry. After it was completed in 1881, it was eulogized in journals and newspapers as “a model of architectural beauty” and “the most ornate and handsome in Southern Oregon.”
