The Sanctuary set with candlelit tables beneath original stained-glass windows

A 19th-century church · Newport, Kentucky

Make It Memorable. Make It Mansion Hill. A historic church turned wedding & event venue — minutes from downtown Cincinnati.

The Venue

Easy to find. Hard to forget.

Mansion Hill Sanctuary sits in Newport’s historic Mansion Hill district — a few blocks from Newport on the Levee, and one bridge from downtown Cincinnati’s riverfront.

Where a congregation once gathered under vaulted ceilings and stained glass, couples now say their vows, families gather to remember, and companies host the sort of evening nobody forgets. The building has been converted with care: the original windows and woodwork remain, joined by a stage, a full kitchen, a proper bar, and room for everyone you’d want to invite.

The venue was amazing!!! My event turned out even more amazing than I could have imagined. The staff were so professional, welcoming, and nice. The decor of my party was over the top! My friends and family still talk about it. The Sanctuary made my event feel so special.
