While spending some time in the Wall Street area and 911 Memorial, we ventured over to the Trinity Church. A gorgeous, historic old church. Don't miss the bronze doors on your way in or the cemetery to the side.( However that tree root sculpture in front of the church Should be missed, in my opinion, its an eyesore ).

It is a must watch for tourist , but for locals alike also.

I wasn't sure what to expect here. The church building is just stunning indoors and out. We sat inside for awhile and took the quiet and reverence in. It felt so good. We explored the adjacent churchyard/Cemetary and were just amazed at how old everything is. Most of the tombstone writing had been worn away by acid rain when coal... More

NYC and all Americans can be proud we still have such beautiful, centuries-old buildings such as this gem in downtown Manhattan. As a history buff, just spotting the impressive grave of Alexander Hamilton (from the street!) was enough to give me patriotic chills. Trinity church and it's nearby chapel, St. Paul's are both worth a visit, as are their churchyards... More

One of America's most historic churches - Alexander Hamilton, Robert Fulton and Albert Gallatin are among the Old New York worthies in its graveyard - Trinity should get a visit on any tour of the Wall Street area.

Just interesting to see near 5th avenue. Flowers were in bloom when we passed by, and small graveyard was picturesque.

We first learned about this specific church while watching "National Treasure"...yep, I wanted to see if there were crypts there that might lead me to a huge fortune. While I knew that would not be the case, we wanted to see it none-the-less. It is a most impressive building! We happened to be there on Sunday morning while the choir... More

I was a little surprised when I saw people having lunch in a cemetery surrounding the church.. but the whole place is so peaceful it kind of makes sense to come here to sit quietly... The church itself is beautiful with the most amazing bronze doors & impressive architecture. There's so much history here! it's like a hidden germ among... More
