Unitarian Universalist Church Interior Tour

The church was completed in 1906 by architects Edward and William Kent. The exterior is English-Village Gothic style while the interior is a mix of Gothic and the Arts and Crafts styles.  It was built on the former estate of philanthropist John J. Albright, benefactor of the Albright Art Gallery.  Visitors will see the Kent brothers’ outstanding use of oak in the church’s great hammer beam ceiling, pews, doors, and sanctuary ornamentation. The Art Nouveau style stained glass windows, each depicting one of the Beatitudes are beautifully adorned with grape and leaves tracery. Visitors will also tour the Alliance Room where several of the Kent brothers’ original architectural renderings of the church are on display. Unitarian Universalist is listed on the New York State and National Register of Historic Places.
