Description:
Originally founded in 1692 as one of Maryland's first Anglican parishes, this building dates to 1856. The church, open to visitors daily at noon, was built in Italian Romanesque style and features Tiffany stained-glass windows and mosaics. The Tiffany rose window, which crowns the entrance, is a jewel many people miss. In addition, two friezes salvaged from the previous church, which burned in 1817, have been incorporated into the portico. A brochure outlining some of the treasures is available in the back of the church. In addition to Sunday services, the church is the site of a Tuesday noontime music series October through May.
