About
Trinity Church, located at Broadway and Wall Street, is an active Episcopal church with a deep history. In 1697, a little over 70 years after the Dutch settled New York as a trading post known as New Amsterdam, Trinity Church was granted a charter by King William III of England. Since then, Trinity has been an integral part of New York City. Today, Trinity Church and St. Paul’s Chapel (just a few blocks north) are the cornerstones of Trinity Church Wall Street, a growing and vibrant Episcopal community.
Sunday services at 9:15am are also held in Trinity's Chapel of All Saints, and 9am family service and 8 pm Compline services take place at St. Paul’s Chapel. During the week, you can join us in the Chapel of All Saints at these times as well: Morning Prayer Weekdays at 8:15 am and 9 am; Midday Eucharist Weekdays at 12:05 pm; and Evening Prayer Weekdays at 5:15 pm.
Duration: 1-2 hours

- Jax20152015Oklahoma239 contributionsA historical site to visitA very impressive church. We decided to visit the church and cemetery. We went through security to enter the church. The security workers were very nice and friendly. We went mainly to visit the cemetery. It’s a neat historical place to visit.Visited March 2023Travelled with familyWritten 23 March 2023
- cardinalgirl9Hendersonville, North Carolina54 contributionsReverence In the CityTrinity Church is a great place to visit and full and so much history. The grave sites of Alexander Hamilton, Eliza Hamilton, their son and Robert Fulton are located there. It was especially fun to visit the church and follow up that night with watching Hamilton at the Richard Rogers Theatre. The church is magnificent with such architectural design. The grounds are very tranquil and serene. The location is perfect for walking from the Downtown Marriott. No charge to enter, but I did make a donation to the church.Visited May 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 10 May 2023
- leavingDIA35 contributionsTrinity Church with Hamilton Loving TeensSo little in New York is free and really worth experiencing. Trinity Church is that place. The beautiful church and adjoining rooms, combined with the excitement of seeing Alexander, Eliza, and Phillip Hamilton’s resting place, make this a must see for any Hamilton fan. And Hercules Mulligan! My teens really enjoyed this stop, and it’s proximity to the WTC memorial made it a moving, inexpensive morning. If you’re looking to up the cost, be sure to stop by Century 21 department store nearby.Visited June 2023Travelled with familyWritten 23 June 2023
- nauj63South East England, United Kingdom785 contributionsPassing by within 5 minutes of the organ striking up……so I went in for the 11.15am Sunday Eucharist. It’s a really attractive physical environment and at a human level, it’s warm, welcoming and friendly. It was almost ‘standing room only’. When the organist did start playing, the sound that ricocheted around the building was magnificent, no less so the singing from the circa 16 choristers. They were seriously impressive, their harmonies pitch perfect, powerful, sensitive, rich and evocative. The service itself was straightforward and easily navigable thanks to a very professionally presented and engaging service pamphlet. And Matthew who delivered the sermon was thankfully relevant and appropriately ‘entertaining’. 75 minutes later and I re-entered the secular world thoroughly uplifted, thoroughly energised.Visited July 2023Travelled soloWritten 9 July 2023

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.Visited November 2023Travelled with familyWritten 12 November 2023

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.Visited October 2023Travelled soloWritten 6 December 2023

Close to the Twin Towers memorial. Historic church amongst the modern city buildings. Striking and historical. The cherub gate will please east Enders.

I think it may be the second most famous/visited church in NYC after St. Patrick cathedral, it's an old, big and beautiful church, but it's very dim inside, not easy to take good picture, it requires security check, also need to have COVID vaccination records and when masks when we visited there in Aug 2022, but sure if this measures will be removed later.

There's a bronze statue of John Watts (Jr.), which was erected by his grandson John Watts de Peyster who was a Union General in the Civil war.
Watts was a NY Politician; his Rose Hill estate is the site of Fordham University (in the Bronx).
