Some of the most striking church buildings in Alabama’s Black Belt sit quietly in Monroe County — some still active, others long abandoned, nearly forgotten. Over the past few years, I’ve photographed dozens of these churches to help document their presence before they’re lost to time, weather, or neglect.
My book, Churches of the Alabama Black Belt: Monroe County, features full-color photos of these sacred spaces, along with names, architectural features, and any visible signage or cornerstone details. These are places where generations worshiped — often with little fanfare and no recorded history.
