Lonely Planet review for St Augustine's Episcopal Church

St Augustine’s Episcopal Church is an 1828 landmark housing the largest African American congregation on the LES. Peek inside to see the restored ‘slave galleries, ’ created to separate worshippers by race in the church’s early days.

    Need to make appointment to visit

    MChin recommends this,

    The church was locked when we arrived, but we managed to get in through the adjacent building and found the church offices. Visiting the Slave Galleries is only by group tour, and those are arranged rather sporadically, depending on the deacon's schedule and demand.
