Immanuel Lutheran Church, Boise
Immanuel Evangelical Lutheran Church, founded in 1906 by Swedish immigrants, traces its origins to the Augustana Synod and began with services held in the Swedish language. The current church building was constructed in 1908 and dedicated in 1915, later transitioning to English services in 1918. In 1955, the church expanded with the construction of a Sunday school building, followed by a new sanctuary completed in 1960.
The church also houses artwork contributed by congregation members, including paintings complementing the stained-glass windows. Adjacent to the church stands Linden House, originally built as a parsonage. Over the years, it was used for Sunday school, emergency housing, church publications, and staff residences.
