Read More	The Old Krall's Mennonite Church and Cemetery is located at 671 Rexmont Road, in South Lebanon Township, near the border of Heidelberg Township. John Krall (1767-1851) and his wife, Elizabeth Gehman Krall (1773-1830), deeded the land to build a church and cemetery in 1811. According to the deed they sold 3/4 acres of land located 1/4 mile south of modern highway 419 along Rexmont Road. Further it is stated that the land was to have a "burial ground and to build a house for public worship by the Mennonite Church who confess repentance of sins, faith, baptism of water, Lord's supper and washing feet." The only heat in the church was from a pot belly stove in the center. The benches were of the open back style. There was no electricity. People who attended evening services were to bring their kerosene lanterns to provide light. There was an outhouse in back of the building. The building was considered to by the best masonry quality and built of limestone taken from the surrounding farms. The building consisted of a sanctuary and one up stairs room. It was surrounded by large white oak trees. The property is currently privately owned and people live in the old Church. The cemetery is located on the right side of the old church. John and Elizabeth Krall, and John's parent's, Abraham and Mary Kreider Krall, are all buried in the cemetery. Their graves stones have been laid flat so that they can be mowed over. The stones are very worn and difficult to read and are not well maintained. There are also a couple of mobile homes now residing on the property. The Krall Mennonite Church was originally started by John's grandfather and two brothers in 1750. It is now referred to as the Old Krall Church and Cemetery as a new Krall Mennonite Church was built in 1956 near Flintville, PA. The Old Krall church has been kept in it's original form.
