| Description: | There are 15 exterior doors, six hallways, two wings, several gardens and courtyards, and two large fellowship spaces at Trinity Episcopal Church. The nave and sanctuary of Trinity Church were designed in 1911 by nationally-known architect Goodhue and is now one of the finest examples of Neo-Gothic architecture in the southeast. The Church is also composed of several halls and wings including Tutton Hall, Redwood Chapel, the Administrative Wing, Trinity Courtyard and Memorial Gardens, all built at different periods of the church's development. The interior of the main hall has beautiful hammer beam ceilings and stained glass windows. |
