Poplar Chapel AME Church

Poplar Chapel AME Church was a historic African Methodist Episcopal church in Rayville, Louisiana. Located on Louisiana Highway 135, it was built in 1903. It was added to the National Register in 1989.

It was a four bay basilica style church with vaguely Queen Anne Revival and Romanesque Revival style influences. It was deemed notable "as a rare survivor of a vernacular archetype".

However, the chapel has been destroyed.
