Английская Википедия:Beverly Unitarian Church
Beverly Unitarian Church is a Unitarian Universalist ("UU") church in Chicago, Illinois.[1]
The church formed in 1951 by the merger of two congregations: the Beverly Unitarian Fellowship, which had begun in 1941, and the People's Liberal Church founded in 1878.[2] People's Liberal Church was known by a variety of names over the years: In 1878 it was called the Unitarian Universalist Christian Union Society of Englewood, or simply the Christian Union Society; in 1880 on moving to a new building, it was named First Universalist Church of Englewood; in 1889 it moved to a larger building and was called Stewart Avenue Universalist Church.[3]
The Givins Irish Castle
The current church building, called the "Irish Castle" was built from 1886 to 1887 under the direction of Robert C. Givins, a successful real estate developer.[4][5] It is a three-story structure with three crenelated towers.[6] Givins lived in the castle from 1887 to 1894, then from 1895 to 1897 the castle housed the Chicago Female College. Beverly Unitarian Church purchased the building for $14,000 and has used it since 1942. It is the only building in the city described as a "castle."[7]
It has been claimed to be haunted.[8][5][9][10][11]
