Description

This elegant Georgian-era brick building with a tower (1754). The church's Royalist congregation changed dramatically during the Revolution, when George Washington and 15 others who had signed the Declaration of Independence worshipped here. William Penn was christened in the baptismal font at the far end of the church.
