Polegreen Church, Archaeological site in Hanover County, United States

The Polegreen Church site features steel beams outlining the original dimensions of the church building, creating an open-air architectural representation.

Established in 1743 as one of Virginia's first non-Anglican churches, Polegreen Church served as a center for religious dissenters until its destruction in 1864.

The site commemorates religious liberty through educational programs, emphasizing the role of early American religious dissenters in colonial Virginia.

Visitors can schedule guided tours, attend public events, or reserve the location for private ceremonies through the Historic Polegreen Church Foundation.

Archaeological excavations by Virginia Commonwealth University revealed the church foundation, providing insights into colonial religious architecture.
