Presbyterian Meetinghouse

The Presbyterian Meetinghouse adds a useful religious-history stop to Colonial Williamsburg. Anglicanism was the official church in colonial Virginia, but Presbyterians and other dissenting groups still practiced here, making the meetinghouse a reminder that the colonial town was not as uniform as its formal institutions suggest.

It is a short, focused stop rather than a headline sight. Work it into a wider Colonial Williamsburg walk with Bruton Parish Church, the Governor's Palace, the Wythe House, and the other restored buildings along the historic streets.
