Situated on the Naugatuck Green stands St. Michael’s Episcopal Church. It was designed by David R. Brown in the Gothic Style. St. Michael’s Parish was formed in 1786, and a church was built in the Millville area of the borough in 1803. That structure was moved to what would become the town center in 1832, to land donated by inn-keeper Daniel Beecher, who also provided land next door for the Congregational Church and established Naugatuck’s Green. The relocated original church was in use until 1875, when it was sold to the Naugatuck school board and removed to make way for the current church.

The church features a red brick façade highlighted by a dramatic rose window set within a pointed-arch frame, enhancing its Gothic character. The entrance porch, marked by a gabled roof and a wooden trefoil brace, adds to the intricate detailing. A second entrance is located in the square tower, which includes lancet-arched windows, a flared pyramidal roof, and an open belfry screened with a trefoil pattern. The church’s multicolored slate roof and black brick stringcourses further emphasize its ornate design.

At the rear of the church is the Parish House, built in 1908 by architect F. Alton Clark, which adds Neo-Classical Revival elements. The building features paneled pilasters and lancet-arched windows, blending harmoniously with the Gothic style of the church. The Parish House is artistically decorated, adding to the architectural richness of the property.

Both were designated as part of the Naugatuck Center Historic District on July 30, 1999.
