The Ameliasburgh WM Church was the main focal point of the village for 100 years. Built in 1868, the church remained in use until its decommissioning in 1967.
For years, the church sat vacant, until it was ceded to the Ameliasburgh Museum. Since then it has been restored to its former grandeur.
It still sees some services throughout the year for special occasions and activities.
