Trinity Episcopal Church

Trinity Episcopal Church is a historic and active church known for its Gothic Revival architecture and significant role in local history. It is the oldest church in Staunton, founded in 1746 as Augusta Parish.A major artistic treasure is its extensive collection of stained-glass windows, including a dozen from Louis Comfort Tiffany Studios, which span his 40-year career. The collection showcases five distinct styles of American church glass from the 1850s onward.The Virginia General Assembly met there from June 7-23, 1781, after fleeing the British forces during the Revolutionary War.The Neo-Gothic structure is complemented by a rectory (1872) and a Parish House (1874, the first in Virginia). The church also houses a modern Taylor & Boody pipe organ.
