On Saturday, November 2, 2024 there will be a public celebration of official Historical Landmark Status for the First Congregational Church of Greenwich.
This Old Greenwich institution, which is deeply tied into the Town’s history, has spent more than a year and a half working on the recognition with the Greenwich Historical Society.
On Saturday, from 5 to 6 p.m., we will be able to celebrate the results of this hard work as the church’s Meetinghouse, which dates back to 1895, is made a Greenwich landmark.
First Congregational Church of Greenwich dates back to 1665 and is the founding church of Greenwich. Back then a town could not be recognized if it did not have a church so it’s historical importance has always been well known.
The event is open to the community and people are encouraged to attend.
A plaque will be unveiled and church historian Pat Larrabee will be there to take questions.
