Constructed by Robert “King” Carter and completed in 1735, Christ Church is the finest and best-preserved parish church from colonial Virginia. The church is a National Historic Landmark and one of America’s great buildings. It retains most of its original elements, including its molded-brick doorways, classical entablature, high-backed pews, triple-deck pulpit and stone pavers. The elaborately carved tombs of Robert Carter and his two wives stand in the churchyard. The site includes an interactive museum, an attractive gift shop, a research room, and a conference/education center. Special educational programs and community events take place throughout the year.
