Adair Church, Adair, Missouri

The last time I went to the Adair Church, it was the dead of winter in 1988. This time, it's the middle of August.

Very interesting window. I like the light coming through.


The octagonal tower.

Adair Church, Adair, Missouri

Adair, Missouri is about 10 to 15 miles east of Kirksville on Highway 11. In Adair, one will find the Adair Church. Actually, I believe it's Saint Mary's Church, but everyone I've ever heard refer to it has called it Adair Church. The church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.

I happened to be in Kirksville in December of 1988, so I took a little road trip out to Adair to photograph the church. Here are a few of them.

Saint Mary's Church, or just the Adair Church.
