These beautiful red doors, protected by the wonderful iron fence and gates, are found at St. John’s Lutheran Church on Archdale Street. Built in 1816-18, to replace a wooden structure, it is believed to have been designed by Frederick Wesner — who also designed the Old Citadel building, as well as the portico of the South Carolina Society Hall. Interestingly, the ironwork was designed by Wesner’s brother-in-law, Abraham P. Reeves.
