This red brick, late Greek Revival building, originally St. Peter's German Evangelical Reformed Church, was built on land donated by Philip Knoche.

The oldest church building in the Town of Tonawanda, it was actively used for religious services until 1967. It still contains the original plank floor, the original pulpit and pews, and an organ installed in 1871. It stands in the middle of the original graveyard, which in turn is surrounded by Mount Olivet Cemetery.

Presently owned by the Town of Tonawanda, it is the headquarters and museum of the Tonawanda-Kenmore Historical Society.
