The Church on Jefferson

November 12, 2026 | Lauren Windle

Isn't it just delightful to stumble upon a historic gem that whisks you away to a different time?

The Church on Jefferson is an artfully restored 1800s landmark in the heart of Franklin. Obviously a church in its former life, this newly renovated large brick venue oozes positively historic charm – definitely a place “where history and celebration meet.”

In downtown Franklin, Church on Jefferson was built in the late 1800s as a house of worship, weddings and celebrations of life for well over a century. Not wishing the structure to go to waste, a local real estate entrepreneur carefully restored and reimagined it, preserving its character (and lovely hand-made stained glass and oak wood floors) while adding and updating it with modern amenities.

Now as a family-owned venue, Jacquie’s team takes delight in catering events here from corporate gatherings and galas to fundraisers, private celebrations, and of course, weddings and receptions.

There is plenty of space for ceremonies, and lots of room afterwards for cocktails, dinner and dancing:

  • VIP Lounge
  • Bar service
  • Balcony
  • Reception hall
  • Private groom and bridal suite
  • Plenty of on-site parking

Next time you have an event begging for space southwest of Indy, take it from us, Franklin’s Church on Jefferson is an extraordinary place to book!
