Capers C.M.E. Church, is a historic Christian Methodist Episcopal church built in 1925 in Nashville, Tennessee.[1] It is also known as Caper Memorial Christian Church,[2] and Capers Memorial C.M.E. Church.[3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 2, 1985.[4]

History

The congregation was originally founded as the McKendree African Mission in 1832,[1] near Sulphur Springs. The church was located on Hynes Street and was renamed in 1851 as Capers Chapel in honor of its founder Bishop William C. Capers.[1][5][6] In 1870, the Capers Chapel became a member of the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church (C.M.E.) (also known as Christian Methodist Episcopal Church), a Black denomination of Wesleyan Methodism.[1]

It was designed in a Neo-Classic style by African-American founded architectural firm McKissack & McKissack.[1] Moses McKissack III of the architectural firm McKissack & McKissack was a church member.[7] The structure is a two-story masonry building, with four stone Doric pilasters.[1]
