CHURCHES

Early church services were held in homes. The first organized Sunday School in Hobart was called the Union Sunday School, and it started in 1851. The first church was built by the Augustana Lutheran congregation. The building still stands across from the old Pennsy Railroad Station.

SCHOOLS

Hobart's first school was a one-room school house in which all grades and classes met in the same room. This little school was built on the east side of center street where the Masonic Temple now stands.
