    Beautiful Historic Church

    Nothing like visiting historic churches that were the center of the lives of our forefathers. How wonderful to walk and sit in a 200 year old church. Beautiful, preserved, and as relevant today as it was when first built.

    Beautifully renovated sanctuary

    Beautiful Easter Festival service! The organ music, the beauty of the sanctuary, and the friendliness of the pastor & congregation make this a very special place to worship.

    Gorgeous

    The worship room on the second floor is stunning. No appointment needed and no fee - but we still made a donation in the metal box next to the door on our way out to help them continue to preserve this building. Definitely worth the...More

    Stunning!

    We saw a numer of churches in while in Savannah and I would say that is is one of the most beautiful. The current appearance dates back to 1879. Two particulars really stand out: the magnifient stained glass and the amazing Cassavant pipe organ -...More

    Most beautiful Lutheran church I have visited!

    What a grand place! The stained glass windows are such a work of art, help telling the word of God. If you appreciate art and beauty, you must visit this place.

    Beautiful church

    In a city of beautiful historic architecture, this church stood out as one of the best. Definitely worth checking out when seeing Wright Square.

    What a beautiful place!

    We were walking by, and a friendly gentleman invited us to enter. He said we were welcome to take pictures as well. The church is 275 years old! It is totally beautiful! The stained class is amazing! What a special place!

    A not so well known stop on the tour

    We stumbled onto this beautiful church, walked inside and were wowed by its beauty. And as a very special gift, the organist was practicing. We had a "private" concert. It was amazingly beautiful. Giant pipe organ really sounded great. I recommend seeing this church.

    Very impressive

    Despite living in Savannah for almost 45 years, this was my first visit to this church. The stained glass windows were truly beautiful, in my opinion, much nicer than the ones at Cathedral of St. John the Baptist. The pipe organ was huge, and I...More
