After living in Old Town for five years, I was finally out when this was open. Free tour of a unique and superbly maintained ancient (by US standards) church with an incredible history of serving presidents and founding fathers. The inside is a bit plain on first view but plenty of historical details and such to keep you looking. Great gift shop too.

My wife and I were with our daughter and three grandsons during a trip to DC this past summer. After touring Mount Vernon we went to see Christ Church after lunch in Alexandria’s Old Town. The docent explained much of the history of the church to us. We sat in George Washington’s family pew box. They have maintained the church building in very good condition. It was also very interesting to stroll through the cemetery and view the old headstones.

After several visits to Alexandria and walks through the church yard, was finally fortunate enough to stop by for a tour of this historic and active church. Margot met me at the door and welcomed me in for a look around or a guided tour. I accepted the tour, but others who stopped in "for a look" were not pressured into a lengthier commitment. The history of the congregation and structure kicked off the tour, followed by pointing out some specific features— many dating from Christ Church's Church-of-England roots and possessing Georgian era styling. Washington's pew was of particular interest, as he was a founding member of the congregation. A $5 donation is appreciated, pictures are welcomed, and a stop at the gift shop was an added delight. The tour was short— but lengthier for my questions. The members of the congregation who I encountered were kind and happy to share their parish with visitors.

My colleague and I were in town and we assumed we could stop by the church. They do have specific tours time that you should check out. However, we got lucky that one of the docents was there and let us listen and participate on the George Washington pew part of the tour. It is really neat history and information. We want to thank her (Janet?) for allowing us to learn. I plan to be back!

The church and graveyard offer a rare look at colonial and Civil War times. There is a mass grave of Confederate soldiers near the front gate, but wander to the back entrance of the church and get a tour. George Washington and Robert E. Lee were both parishioners. It's a cool, quiet setting.

We went here for service on New Year’s Day 2023. We were interested in the history of the church and thought a service would be a nice way to visit. After the service we were looking around a bit and a parishioner took the time to point out George Washington’s pew and Robert E Lee’s too. He and another parishioner spent a generous amount of time telling us about the interesting parts of the church—old and new—and share some church history. Amazing experience.

The church is simple but lovely. A docent invited us to sit in George Washington's pew and provided an interesting description of the church, its history, and the many dignitaries who have visited here. We throughly enjoyed this experience.

You can sit in George Washington's pew! You can sit in his actual pew! We got a brief history from a docent and enjoyed this experience!

A cool oasis from the heat-with a public restroom. I’ve walked through several times and the church has always been in use or closed.

We walked through the cemetery and as we entered the church, we were greeted by Sue, a docent who was so pleasant and knowledgeable. She walked us over to the pew box George Washington sat in and proceeded to tell us the history of the beautiful church and the many notable people who belonged to the church in the past, the dignitaries who have visited the church, and it's current status. It was so interesting and such a lovely building to be sitting in. Amazing how the original structure has been preserved and still services the community. So glad we stopped by.

Why did they recently announce they are taking out a plaque commemorating George Washington that is "inside the Church?"
That is the entire attraction people are there to view?!

Radical left wing revisionists, erasing and disrespecting our history including General George Washington. Apparently this is because (as was accepted at the time) he had slaves.
Never mind he freed them all.
Never mind the US fought a war to free the slaves.
Nobody thinks slavery is anything but a historic evil but to erase the memory of those that gallantly built this Country is something only Mao or Lenin would embrace.

There is street parking, We walked from our hotel. Another option is using the free trolley that runs up and down King Street and walking about two blocks.
