Description
Established by Dutch settlers in 1677, the parish carries the early history of what was once the town of New Utrecht. The 1820s sanctuary recently reopened after a major restoration, continuing its role as the home of the Christian Community of New Utrecht and its civic ministries. Nearby, the church maintains its historic cemetery, while the Friends of Historic New Utrecht host civic and historic programs on-site. Visitors frequently note the parish's deep connections to Revolutionary War history.
