Eden Congregational Church, also known as Pioneer Chapel, is a historic church building located just north of downtown Hayward in Alameda County, California. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.[1][2] The church is still in use by the Eden United Church of Christ (Congregational).[3] A culverted stretch of San Lorenzo Creek runs past it.
History
The building was constructed in 1867. In 1947 the building was moved about one mile north. In 2003 the building was moved again, about 400 feet.[4] The Hayward Area Historical Society was inaugurated in 1956 at the church.[5]
