Guided Tours of First Parish
This impressive 1899 granite structure, the fifth Meetinghouse
on this site, was built using donated funds to honor the Pilgrim
Founders. It has outstanding Tiffany stained glass windows
illustrating the Pilgrim story. The sanctuary interior is of
carved quarter-sawn oak and is one of the finest examples of
hammer beam construction in the United States. All donations received during 2010 from tours of First Parish are specifically earmarked for our Restoration Projects. Adults, $5.00, children under 16 free. (508) 747-1606 |
The congregation has a long tradition of religious freedom and faith that dates back to the pilgrim landing and beyond. We trace our origin back to the year 1606 when a group of dissenters from the Church of England banded together in Scrooby. In 1620 part of the Leyden congregation set sail aboard the Mayflower, seeking the freedom to worship according to the dictates of their own conscience in the New World.
