Most people visit this church for the cemetery. It’s incredible to see so many well preserved tombstones, many of which are pre-revolutionary war. The grounds are very well cared for, and the security guards that patrol the church are polite and professional. If you have time, it’s worth a quick stop to pay respects and also visit Alexander and Elisa Hamilton’s graves.

Trinity Church is in the heart of the financial district of Manhattan. I found it quite easily and it is a short distance from the New York Stock Exchange. I found this quite interesting, I wonder of the people who work in the stock exchange go to Trinity church afterwards. The church is a really lovely traditional building and if you like church architecture you will probably enjoy this.

Historically significant and beautiful Episcopalian church that sits in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan at the intersection of Wall St and Broadway. This is the third version of Trinity Church with the original built on this site in 1697. The current church was completed in 1846. Amazingly it was the tallest building in the United States until 1869 and remained the tallest building in New York City until 1890. Its cemetery is the final resting place for many famous figures from history, most notably Alexander Hamilton. His grave can be easily spotted along Rector Street.

WOW -- such a beautiful church and amazing that there is no cost to tour. The stained glass windows are gorgeous and we were fortunate enough to get to hear one of the clergy practicing on the organ and that wqs FAB!! The church and adjoining rooms, have some beautiful paintings, sculptures, etc. - not to mention the outside graveyard lets you see Alexander, Eliza, and Phillip Hamilton’s resting place. I definitely recommend stopping in Trinity Church the next time you are near Wall Street and the 9/11 memorial.

I was so glad to spend some time walking through the church sanctuary and grounds. There’s a security check as you enter, but it doesn’t take too long. (You do want to be mindful of worship service schedule to time your visit.) As you exit the cemetery, there is a sign indicating where some of the graves are that visitors like to see, and the path is easy to navigate. We did not do an official tour and were a little irritated by outside tour groups who tried to rush us through the paths if we were in front of them. We managed to get them to pass us so we could linger. There are lots of photo spots. Unfortunately, we did not see any National Treasure clues.

This church is amazing! The architecture, location, and history make this a must see. Alexander Hamilton is buried here. When visiting lower Manhattan I highly recommend seeing Trinity Church!

If a Hamilton fan, I recommend stopping by and paying your respects to the many resting there that made the musical famous. We enjoyed seeing the church and resting place mentioned in the broadway show. The church and cemetery are taken care of and are free to everyone. It is a peaceful space among the busy city.

The church was beautiful inside and out! We also visited Alexander Hamilton‘s grave and the remainder of the cemetery and the notable figures that are also buried there. The cemetery grounds were beautifully kept, the atmosphere was very serene despite being in the middle of the city. Definitely enjoyed the experience!

So pleased we visited this lovely church. It is close to the 9/11 Memorial Museum and thankfully survived that infamous day. Be prepared to go through airport Like security. First time I have experienced that in a place of worship. The volunteers and people employed there were very helpful and professional. Lit candles for friends and family both here and passed. Would recommend for quiet reflection. Donations welcome.

We arrived and were told the church was closed. We could see the choir practicing inside. We asked the gentleman of we could walk around the grounds and he said yes. We walked through the cemetery. A lot of very old gravesites. Interesting juxtaposition with the old church/cemetery and the modern buildings all around.
