"There are two religious buildings in the Athens Historic District, the First Presbyterian Church at 622 South Main Street, and the Trinity Episcopal Church at 703 South Main Street. The style of both is a Gothic Revival, front-gable/side-steeple form. The Episcopal Church was constructed of stone from 1860 to 1861, ...The earlier Episcopal Church is less ornate, and has pointed arch windows, stone buttresses, and a castellated parapet on the square tower. Both churches are good examples of nineteenth-century ecclesiastical architecture, and each have nearby parsonages that are also contributing resources in the district."
