The Old First Church was gathered in 1762, the first Protestant church in Vermont.
Much of the early history of Bennington and of Vermont took place in and around the
original Meeting House, built in 1763, and the present church, built in 1805 and
dedicated January 1, 1806. As a result, the Vermont Legislature, in 1935, designated
the church as "Vermont's Colonial Shrine".
Over 200 years now since the dedication of the present building, we continue to be
an active church community.
We warmly invite you to worship with us each Sunday.
September through June: 11:00 am
July and August: 9:30 am
