Charleston - called the "Holy City" by some and the "Unholy City" by others - had a reputation for open-mindedness and religious diversity. Almost every Christian denomination in the country established a church here, and by the late 18th century, the city had the largest Jewish population in America.
Visit St. Michael's Episcopal Church, Charleston's oldest church building, the stunningly beautiful Cathedral of St. John the Baptist, and the last remaining active French Huguenot Church in America. Wander through the lush graveyard of the oldest Unitarian Church in the South. Pause by gravesites of signers of both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution.
This tour treats topics ranging from the symbols on gravestones to the reconciliation of religion and slavery in the southern mind. It blends history with somber beauty and is one of the most memorable ways to learn and appreciate Charleston's rich past. |
