Gethsemane Episcopal Church is an historic Episcopal church building located at 40 North Hering Street in Appleton, Minnesota, United States. Built in 1879 during the episcopate of pioneer Bishop Henry Benjamin Whipple, it was originally a Carpenter Gothic style wooden-frame structure with the board and batten walls and lancet windows typical of that style. Around 1920 the interior and exterior walls were plastered over which greatly changed its appearance and obscured its Carpenter Gothic origin. Over the years, additions were made to the building and a basement was added. Although it ceased to be an active parish in 1991, it is still owned by the Episcopal Diocese of Minnesota and is occasionally used for funerals and other services. On July 20, 2011, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. ^{[2][3][4][5][6]}
