Trinity Church

An Episcopalian (Anglican) church and parish found its beginnings on this site back in 1697, thanks to a charter by King William III. The church has seen several transformations, and the current Neo-Gothic Revival structure is the third incarnation, built in 1846. This elegant building stands as a significant landmark in Downtown.
