__NOTOC__ The Mendocino Presbyterian Church is an historic Carpenter Gothic style Presbyterian church building located at 44831 Main Street, in Mendocino, California. Built of coast redwood, it sits on the Mendocino headlands overlooking the Pacific Ocean; its board and batten exterior walls, tall side-entrance bell tower, steep gabled roof and lancet windows are typical of many Carpenter Gothic churches. Its stained glass windows were made by local stained glass artist Leone McNeil Zimmer.〔(MPC Stained Glass ), accessed 2011-12-25.〕 The church is California Historical Landmark No. 714 and is also a contributing property in the Mendocino and Headlands Historic District which was added on July 14, 1971, to the National Register of Historic Places.〔 ==History== The church was designed by architects S. C. Bugbee & Son of San Francisco and was built between 1867-1868 at a cost of $10,000 by contractor Albert Maxwell. On July 5, 1868, it was formally dedicated.〔(Mendocino Presbyterian Church history ).〕 It served as the model for the more elaborate Church of the Good Shepherd, Berkeley that S. C. Bugbee's son Charles L. Bugbee designed in the late 1880s. In 1947 parts of the movie Johnny Belinda, which starred Jane Wyman and Lew Ayres, were filmed on the premises and the church received enough money to buy a new roof.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mendocino Presbyterian Church」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
