Methodist Church Details

Like the valley's Baptists, Methodists in Cades Cove spent many years worshipping in a rough log building before this white-frame church was built in 1902, with construction costing a reported $115. Both congregations were divided during the Civil War, and some Cades Cove Methodists split to form their own church. Speaking of divisions, the church was built with a traditional two-door design intended to separate men and women entering to worship, although Cades Cove residents tended to sit wherever they wanted, anyway.
