Post Oak Springs Christian Church is an independent, non-denominational Christian church, associated with the Restoration Movement. It is said to be the oldest Restoration Movement Christian Church in Tennessee, formed in 1812.
The church building, erected in 1876, is the third building to house the church's congregation. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in March 2007 as a representation of late nineteenth century settlement patterns and the development of the Christian church in rural East Tennessee. The congregation currently meets in a modern brick church across the street from the old church.
Location
Post Oak Springs is located in Roane County, Tennessee, on the east side of Rockwood, off Roane State Highway, a short distance south of the Rockwood city limits.
