Built back in the year 1841 and consecrated in 1843, the St. Stephen's Episcopal Church of Milledgeville, Georgia played a part in the history of the South. General Sherman’s troops caused quite a bit of damage to the beautiful church in November of 1864 during the infamous “March to the Sea,” ransacking the building, burning pews for firewood, pouring molasses into the organ pipes, and stabling horses inside.

Further destruction was caused by the igniting the nearby armory. St. Stephen's Episcopal Church, located in the historic Statehouse Square, has since been rebuilt and still stands as a beautiful old church.
