Jamestown Memorial Church at Historic Jamestown/b>

The brick Church, built in 1907, was a gift to the APVA (now Preservation Virginia) from the National Society of Colonial Dames of America. The stately Church stands behind a brick tower, erected c. 1690, which is the only surviving seventeenth-century structure at Jamestown. It is also one of the oldest English-built edifices standing in the United States. The interior of the Church contains the brick and cobblestone foundations of the 1639 church. Just yards away, the "noble" James River flows beside the site. The River and the natural setting provide additional beauty and tranquility to the magnificent historic setting, where our most cherished traditions of freedom were planted and took root.
