The Ephraim Moravian Church, located in the heart of Ephraim, Wisconsin, dates back to the mid-19th century and reflects the town’s deep Moravian heritage. Founded in 1853 by Norwegian settlers under the leadership of Reverend Andreas Iverson, the congregation built this white clapboard church overlooking Eagle Harbor as both a house of worship and a symbol of unity for the early Door County community. The building’s steeple, traditional in form yet understated in design, continues to define Ephraim’s skyline, linking the village’s modern charm with its Scandinavian and religious roots.
