Butler Chapel A.M.E. Zion Church is a historic African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church built in 1913, and located in Greenville, Alabama. It was one of three significant meeting places for African-Americans living in Greenville during the early-20th century.[1]

The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]

History

This building was a replacement for the original 1867 church structure which had burned down on April 19, 1911.[1] Butler Chapel had served a wide-ranging role as the neighborhood center of economic and social development for many people, including serving as the first African-American school in the city.[1]
