St. John's Lutheran Church was founded in 1747 by German immigrants. The first place of worship was a log structure built in 1768 on North Lee Street in Salisbury.
By the early 1920's, increasing membership resulted in purchase of property closer to downtown. The first worship service for the building St. John's now occupies was held January 2, 1927. Since that time, several improvements have been made to the worship space. In the mid-1950's St. John's was the largest Lutheran congregation between Washington and Atlanta.
