The Cane Ridge Meeting House, nestled near Paris in Kentucky, is one of the oldest church buildings in the state, built back in 1791. This historic site is known for its unique one-room log structure and its significant role in the Second Great Awakening. Barton W. Stone, a prominent figure who later helped found the Disciples of Christ/Christian Church, preached at this church. The building boasts vertical log construction with interlocking dovetail joints, a massive fireplace, a wooden pulpit and pews, and an intricately hand-carved front door. Today, it stands as a vital testament to American religious history.
