Old First Church

The Old First Church (Congregational) 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, dedicated in 1806. As a result, the Vermont Legislature designated the church as "Vermont's Colonial Shrine" in 1935.
