St. Peter's Kierch, also called the Old Kierch or St. Peter's Church, is a historic Lutheran church in Middletown, Dauphin County in the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. Construction began in 1767 and it was dedicated by Henry Muhlenberg in 1769. St. Peter's Kierch was used regularly until 1879 when a large church was completed. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. == Design == St. Peter's Kierch is a 2½-story, Georgian-style church at the intersection of Union and High Streets in Middletown.〔Pennsylvania Register of Historic Sites and Landmarks, § 7.〕 The church was constructed from red sandstone. Originally, galleries were located on the east, west and south sides with the pulpit on the north side. The bell tower was constructed 46 years after the rest of the church, on the west side, as it was not intended to be used an entrance. The sides of the church have three windows reaching to the upper story. Each window has forty-four panes of glass—eleven panes high, four across.〔
