First Evangelical Lutheran Church, ELCA
358 Main St, Leechburg, PA
Around 1796, German immigrants began holding worship services on a farm belonging to Jacob Klingenschmidt, on what is now the site of the Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Allegheny Township, at the corner of West Leechburg and Pleasant Hill Roads. The congregation was officially organized September 5, 1814 at the farm, and a brick church was soon erected. In 1860, the congregation passed a resolution to meet with the city church, at what is now Hebron Lutheran Church, at the corner of Main and Second Streets.
