Alna Meeting House, c.1789 - Alna, Lincoln County
The Alna Meeting House is a two-story building set on a hillside facing south towards Wiscasset. When constructed it was located in the North Precinct of the larger town of Pownalborough (now Dresden) before Alna was incorporated as New Milford in 1794. Centrally located, it served those living in the villages of Alna Center, Head Tide, Puddle Dock, and points beyond. Constructing a meeting house was one of the most important tasks a burgeoning community would take on.
