Old Pine Street Presbyterian Church
412 Pine Street
Philadelphia, PA 19106
The burial ground is a Who’s Who of 18th-century movers and shakers. And the church’s history includes music, an appearance in a Hollywood film and even a touch of scandal.
Stained glass and art nouveau windows date from the late 1800s. The church yard, containing over 3,000 graves, reflects three centuries of history. The westernmost area of the cemetery contains graves dating from the early 1700s, which were transferred in 1850 from First Presbyterian Church.
