Union Sunday School is an historic building located in Clermont, Iowa, United States. It was built in 1858 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1] Initially the building housed Clermont Presbyterian Church, which was organized in 1857.[2] It became a non-denominational church, which maintained the town’s first library in 1880.[2] That congregation has since disbanded. The building continues to house the pneumatic Kimball organ, which was given to the church as a gift from Anna Larrabee, the daughter of Iowa Governor William Larrabee .[2] She served as the church organist for many years. The instrument, restored by Dobson Pipe Organ Builders in 2010, is still played in concerts.
