Churches and temples in Columbia

This tour visits places of worship, among them churches, cathedrals, synagogues, temples and chapels. Congregations still use many of them and access depends on the hours they keep.

The stops that carry a construction date run from 1854 to 1906. 10 stops, 1.5 miles end to end. One stop is a National Historic Landmark.

Distances are straight lines between the coordinates in the National Park Service Register data, so the walk on the street will be longer. Nobody has walked or checked this as a route, and a listing does not mean a place is open to visitors. Stops last changed Sep 18, 2026.
