Established in 1681, St. Philip's is the oldest church congregation in the state of South Carolina…read more After they moved to their Church Street site in 1710, they built a church that lasted until it was wiped out by a fire. The current building was constructed in 1835 and boasts a beautiful, tall steeple. The interior of St. Philip's is stunning so if you're exploring the churchyard or cemetery, go inside the church and look around. It's usually open, with helpful guides to tell you all about it. Fact: it is the highest point in Charleston. Also, The church you see today is the second on this site. The original held its first service on Easter Sunday 1723, and burned down in a fire in February 1835. It also has the distinction of having both a churchyard (graves surrounding the church building itself) and a cemetery across the street. The view of Church Street punctuated by St. Philip's remains one of Charleston's most photographed spots.

A Wonderfully preserved, impeccably maintained historic Anglican Church…read more I visited recently (June 26) for the 10:30 Service, arriving early as the lovely choir was practicing that Sunday's hymns; obviously, they were a very robust, musically inclined group well lead by their Choir Director. As the church began to fill up I noticed that the congregation arrived in their 'Sunday Best'. In fact, the personal affluence was striking : lots of women in lovely, stylish hats and men in souther-style, gabardine suits with bow ties! I have to say however, although a friendly atmosphere was evident, I did not feel very welcome, as a casually dressed visitor. Added to this, was the cursory handshake by one of the more senior ministers as he strolled down the aisle prior to the service. Yet, this gesture was not accompanied by even at least a few words of introduction. I departed the service early given I was only there more for prayerful meditation and reflection ... left feeling a bit empty... Recommend visitors be prepared for a more elitist experience and less of perhaps of a warm welcome. I do hope my first exposure to St. Phillip's was just a flute and there is a deeper connection with the congregation! Good luck with your experience as mine was somewhat disappointing, first-time. R
