Phoenix Flies: Stonehenge Mansion & Sanctuary Tour

Tour Stonehenge Mansion, built in the Domestic Gothic style in 1914 as a residence for the Venable family. St. John’s Lutheran Church purchased the property in 1959, renovating the structure for use as a church. In 1969 the congregation built a sanctuary in the round, matching the architectural style of the mansion as well as providing a unique worship and concert venue. The property is used today by a variety of organizations as a meeting place, houses a retreat center for youth doing urban immersion work in the city, and is the home for the congregation’s outreach ministry. The tour will include the mansion, the sanctuary and a short demonstration of the Zimmer tracker-action pipe organ, installed in 1983.
