Best St Paul S Chapel Tours & Trips

Located in Lower Manhattan, St. Paul's Chapel is the oldest surviving church in all of Manhattan. St. Paul's Chapel was completed in 1766 and the chapel was built on land granted by Ann, the Queen of Britain. The chapel was designed by architect Thomas McBean and built by Andrew Gautier. The design of the chapel is reminiscent of Georgian churches; the church's hall is decorated with glass chandeliers, pale colors and a flat ceiling. St. Paul's Chapel was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1960. The chapel has been visited by some of America's most historic figures, including George Washington and other members of the United States Congress. St. Paul's Chapel is still an active part of the Parish of Trinity Church and still hosts services.
