Beautiful church inside. The cemetery is a great place to walk around and see the amazing people who are buried there (including Alexander Hamilton, Eliza and Angelica Schuyler, Philip Hamilton, and more). There was a children's choir singing the national anthem in the courtyard - made for a wonderful experience all around.

Very old church on Broadway, facing (the west side of) Wall Street, this church has appeared in numerous movies due to its location as so many films are shot on WS. This is probably one ot the oldest churches in New York, and they still have many tombstones in the adjacent yard, some from centuries ago, and some from famous men. A very peaceful location if you want a break from the sea of business people and tourists constantly drifting.

Absolutely magnificent how it seems submerged by the surrounding modern buildings We were visiting and almost missed it, and possibly would have, if not for a kind passerby that overheard we were looking for it! The graves outside and around the church are a MUST see! Inside is breathtaking. This was the highlight of my 14 yr. old daughters trip to NYC.

Historic place in Manhattan. A cemetery with graves of more than 300 years at his side, Alexander Hamilton is buried here among other historical figures. It is the contrast between modernity and classic that makes this place something special.

Beautiful building in the midst of new modern skyscrapers. Supposedly the church was at the attack 9/11 the only building in the quarter whose windows were not destroyed. I thought the sight was very impressive, because the church in the middle of the bustling Wall Street and the ultramodern buildings radiates a tranquility which if one takes a short time is absolutely transferred to the individual. If you pass the Trinity church, stop and enjoy the spectacular contrasting perspective.

It's a gorgeous church. A must see. I was disappointed with the lack of communication. We planned on going inside. The security told us to come back at 2. So we came back 2 and half hours later at 2:03p and they were closed for a private event. I wish we'd known that so we didn't waste time. Coming to New York is a once in a lifetime experience for us.

A remarkable church, located just steps from the NY Stock Exchange. Stop them if you can it's worth a look. If you have the chance to spend during the Christmas holiday you have the pleasure to admire a nice crib!
