About The Sacred Site
The Church of the Messiah was designed by architect John W. Summers, and is one of the finest examples of the Gothic Revival style of architecture in the city. It took 11 years to build, and was one of the few buildings to survive the Great Fire of 1864. Construction on the towering stone structure was completed in time for Christmas Mass in 1865, and the church was consecrated the following June.
The church is situated within the Three Squares Historic District of Glens Falls, once known as Hometown USA.
