Places of worship in Charleston, SC

The steeples are where the nickname comes from, and many of the congregations under them are among the oldest continuously active in the country.

Worth knowing

  • Several downtown congregations are historic buildings that welcome visitors at ordinary services, not only as sights.
  • Service times vary; most publish them, and Sunday parking downtown is the practical constraint.
  • The peninsula's congregations are walkable from one another, which is unusual and worth knowing.
