Built in 1919, this former hotel in Edgefield, South Carolina has been vacant for many years.

But @PreservationSC, a nonprofit that works to preserve historic structures statewide, hopes to see the building restored to its former glory.

PSC has worked for months to try to get an African American Heritage Grant from the National Trust for Historic Preservation that would have provided a significant financial boost to start work on the c. 1835 building, but it couldn’t even get a letter of support from the church.

"At a time when South Carolina’s African American history is getting more attention than ever, a key piece might be lost soon."

Thank you, @RobertFBehre, for helping us spread the word about the historic Taveau Church.

We must do something - and soon!

Happy Sacred Space Sunday! Storm Branch Baptist Church located in Beech Island is a leading African American congregation. The original Storm Branch church building shown here, received a brick veneer and stained glass windows in 1919.
