St. Peters Church
This church is located in the historic town of St. George. It is believed to be the oldest Anglican church continually used in the western hemisphere. This church replaced a 1612 structure made of wooden posts and palmetto leaves. It was destroyed in a storm.
The front of St. Peters Church is over 500 years old. The first settlers brought it to Bermuda. There are two graveyards outside the churchyard. Like many other churches in Bermuda, St. Peters Church also has a gallery on the western side. This gallery was built in early 1700s. The church hours are from 10 am to 4 pm daily, and Sunday service at 11:15 am. Monday to Saturday a guide is available here. Visit this public art location in BM today!
