Hebron Lutheran Church is a historic Lutheranchurch located in the countryside northeast of Madison, Madison County, Virginia. The original section was built about 1740, with the south wing added about 1800. It is a one-story, T-shaped, frame building on a stone foundation. The original section measures 50 feet by 26 feet. The building was renovated in 1850 and, in 1885, the flat ceilings were adorned with decorative frescoes of rich Victorian patterns by Giuseppe Oddenino. The building was renovated again in 1961.[3]
In 1802, a new pipe organ made by David Tannenberg, perhaps America's most renowned early builder of pipe organs, was installed in the Hebron Lutheran Church. As the largest remaining and virtually unaltered example of Tannenberg's or any other extant organs from the colonial period, it is of special importance in American organbuilding history. It, like the church wherein it is located, are special examples of American history.
