"The New Woollam Methodist Church has served this German rural community
since 1889.
"The land upon which this church rests was purchased in 1889 for $45.00from Frederick Strehlman. It replaced an
earlier church building that was built in 1862. The services were held in German until the first World War and then
the services were held partly in German until 1932. The brick and frame front was added in 1957. The side Lancet
style windows have wood frame surrounds. The Church has a tin roof with a gable pitch roofline, cut outs along the
eaves, and double front doors. The New Woollam Methodist Church is an example of modified Gothic Revival
architecture." ~ DNR Historic Survey PDF pages 657-660
