George Washington and Robert E. Lee both attended services at Christ Church. Washington is thought to have announced, here in the churchyard in 1774, his belief that the colonies should declare their independence and withdraw their allegiance from King George III. Washington's pew is preserved inside. Lee attended services here on 21 April 1861, the day before he traveled to Richmond to accept command of the Army of Virginia.

Constructed of Flemish bond brickwork by builders James Parsons and John Carlyle, the architecture is attributed to James Wren. This lovely landmark remains an active Episcopal church today.
