Augustus Lutheran Church (Old Trappe Church)
The Old Trappe Church, built between 1743 and 1745, served as a Continental Army field hospital and has been a National Historic Landmark since 1967. Henry Melchior Muhlenberg was pastor here from 1742 until his death in 1787, and the congregation still holds 8 am communion in the old stone building.
