St. Peter Lutheran Church
A one-story wooden structure constructed in 1897-99 formerly housed the United Brethren Church. The builder was Gust Freeman, an emigrant from Sweden who followed plans commonly found in that country. In January of 1896, he borrowed $600 to construct the church. One of the oldest in Tillamook, and except for the replacement of its tower and spire which blew off in a windstorm years ago, it remains in almost original condition. The building has gone through three different denominations and a resident hermit.
