St. John's Episcopal Church - 'Church of the Presidents'

St. John's Episcopal Church, Lafayette Square, completed in 1816, is commonly called the 'Church of the Presidents' because it has been attended by many U.S. presidents and presidential families since the early 19th century. The church sits across Lafayette Square from the White House and has hosted regular presidential services, funerals, and memorial events. Its pews and interior include documented associations with numerous historical figures in U.S. political life.
