Although George Washington was also a member of Truro Church near his home at Mount Vernon, he kept a family pew at Christ Church. This pew has been preserved in its original place in his honor. Confederate General Robert E. Lee, an Alexandria native, worshiped here throughout his life. Built in 1773, the building has been restored to its original Georgian style. An unusual Palladian window and tablets, hand-lettered by Colonial James Wren, are special building features. Additional galleries were added in 1787.
