This church was erected in 1833 and restored in 1954 by the Wapwallopen Historical Society. It was built by a German settlement along the Susquehanna river. A settlement that was procured with a treaty between Chief Shickellamy and Conrad Weisor. The structure was built as a union church - German Reformed and Lutheran combined together. The Reformed congregation was the most prominent in this instance. Most of the churches in the area were an offshoot of this congregation. Harold (Hap) Hinchcliffe is an active member of the Historical Society and is in large part responsible for caring for this magnificent structure and the adjoining cemetery. This summer of 2013 the outside has been restored and the windows repaired.
