The Historic Saint Agnes Episcopal Church is a Miami landmark established in 1898. The landmark was designated an historic site by the Black Archives and Research Foundation of South Florida and the City of Miami.

Constructed to house one of Miami’s oldest African-American congregations, this church building reflects a mix of architectural styles, including Neo-Classical and Mission style elements. The interior ornamentation is particularly noteworthy and includes an ornately carved marble altar from the congregation’s original church and detailed ceiling.
