The Little Brown Church of Round Pond was established in 1863 as a non denominational Church. At that time ship building was the principal industry on the coast of Maine. In one season three shipyards were operating in this small village. Because of this, many new families moved to the area and the population rapidly grew. Two Churches were established in that same year. The Brown Church has continued as a non denominational church with guest ministers throughout the summer months.
