Malden Historic District, Kanawha Salines Presbyterian Church, 4305 Salines Dr, Malden, Kanawha County, WV
This is the oldest church structure in Malden and is one of the earliest Presbyterian churches in the Kanawha Valley. It was built in 1840 to house a congregation established circa 1819. The name of the church preserves a former name of the Malden community, Kanawha Salines, which had derived from the production of salt, a major early nineteenth-century industry in the area. The building is rated as one of three pivotal structures in the Malden Historic District.
