St. Philip’s Episcopal Church

This is a historic church on Church Street in downtown Charleston. It was named a Historic landmark in 1973. The tower of ST. Philip’s served to guide mariners into Charleston’s harbor. The church is only one of two in the United States to have served this function. The church was established in 1681. It is the oldest religious congregation in South Carolina. The original building was damaged by a hurricane and it was rebuilt on Church Street.
