Reviews
"Beautiful historic church in Colonial Williamsburg. Worth a visit. Attended the Hogmanay New Year's Eve concert and it was wonderful. Really happy we went. There was no charge but you can make a donation to support the church should you wish. If you attend a free event there, it is recommended to go about 15-30 minutes early and wait in line so you can get a seat. Space is limited. If you can manage steps, there are two balconies that offer great views."
"The Bruton Parish Episcopal Church is a currently operated church and was not accessible at the time of our visit. We have been inside before and the interior is lovely. This rating is based on the great outside appearance and the historic cemetery and grounds surrounding the church."
"One of the major sites at Williamsburg. This is a must-see location. So much history, both inside and outside. This is just an incredible place. While most of the structures in Williamsburg were refabricated according to original blueprints and records, the church is original, and you can really feel it when your're standing in there."
"Easily my favorite building in Colonial Williamsburg. As a fan of colonial-era churches, this one is certainly one of the best in the state, and it's the oldest surviving building in Williamsburg. It's free to enter, and you can see on the pews essentially a roll call of important colonial names, with George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Marshall, Patrick Henry, George Wythe, and many others. You can see the graveyard too, although they don't let you walk around in it. Should absolutely be the #1 priority of anyone looking to visit Williamsburg."
"Beautiful old church where our founding fathers attended. Daniel Custis's grave is there. I wish I'd been on an organ recital day. The ladies who work there are very knowledgeable."
