History

Founded in 1712 in then Prince George's County, Maryland, the congregation is the oldest religious institution within the boundaries of the present-day District of Columbia. The church was built in 1775, incorporating parts of an older church built in 1719. It was remodeled in 1853 and restored after a major fire in 1922, with Washington architect Delos H. Smith selected to serve as architect of the renovation. [3] On March 16, 1972, St. Paul's was added to the National Register of Historic Places. The interior of the church received additional restoration in 2004, at which time a new pipe organ built by Dobson Pipe Organ Builders was installed. St. Paul's Church is well known for its excellent acoustics and outstanding professional choir. Sunday services are held at 8:00 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. each week with services of Choral Evensong held at 4:00 p.m. on scheduled Sundays. [1]
