Union Sunday School is an historic building located in Clermont, Iowa, United States. It was built in 1858 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. Initially the building housed Clermont Presbyterian Church, which was organized in 1857. It became a non-denominational church, which maintained the town’s first library in 1880. That congregation has since disbanded. The building continues to house the pneumatic Kimball organ, which was given to the church as a gift from Anna Larrabee, the daughter of Iowa Governor William Larrabee . She served as the church organist for many years. The instrument, restored by Dobson Pipe Organ Builders in 2010, is still played in concerts.
