Designed by James Wren in the colonial Georgian style and built during the period between 1767 and 1773, Christ Church was the first Episcopal Church in Alexandria. Many prominent figures have worshipped regularly at Christ Church including George Washington, Robert E. Lee, George Mason and many U.S. presidents. Traditionally, the President of the United States visits Christ Church at some point during his administration, often near the anniversary of George Washington's birthday.
