New York City, New York
Trinity Church, located at the intersection of Wall Street and Broadway in Lower Manhattan, is a historic Episcopal parish with a legacy dating back to 1697. The current Gothic Revival building, completed in 1846, was once the tallest structure in New York City.
The church is famous for its historic graveyard, which is the final resting place of Alexander Hamilton, Eliza Hamilton, and Robert Fulton. Its soaring brownstone spire and intricate bronze doors are architectural masterpieces.
Visitors can explore the historic churchyard, attend a worship service, or enjoy the "Concerts at One" musical series. The church also houses a small museum and exhibits detailing its role in NYC history.
Weekdays are ideal for exploring the quiet graveyard amidst the bustle of the Financial District. The church is open daily, but visiting during a scheduled concert adds a unique musical dimension to the experience.
Admission to the church and graveyard is free. Visitors are encouraged to check the official website for current opening hours and service schedules.
The church grounds include accessible paths. Restrooms and a small visitor area are available in the adjacent Trinity Commons.
Pick up a graveyard map to easily locate the monuments of famous historical figures. The church is an active parish, so please remain quiet and respectful during visits.
Trinity Church is steps away from Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange, Federal Hall, and the 9/11 Memorial & Museum.
