Old St. Gabriel's Episcopal Church
Old St. Gabriel's Episcopal Church, Episcopal church in Douglassville, Pennsylvania, US.
The brownstone church building features a distinct herringbone pattern in its stone construction and contains a restored chapel from 1801 alongside a larger structure from 1884.
Founded in 1720 as a Swedish Lutheran church, the congregation joined the Church of England in 1760 and participated in establishing the Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania.
The church cemetery contains markers for military veterans from multiple conflicts, spanning from the Revolutionary War through the Persian Gulf War.
The building includes administrative offices, classrooms, and a parish hall following expansions in 1959 and 2005 to accommodate growing community needs.
Standing as the oldest church in Berks County, the structure incorporates both the original 1801 chapel and an 1884 church building within its current complex.
