| Description: |
The
congregation is 300 years old, but the building is only about
half that age. Yet, a building built in 1834—particularly
one as appealing as this—can be a lovely landmark, set
as it is among the trees along historic Route 6A. Nicknamed
"the Church of the Sea Captains" in the days of clipper
ships when almost 40 of their masters were members there, this
congregation is officially named First Parish Brewster, and
is a Unitrarian Universalist Church. This
painting shows the walk that leads from the Brewster Store,
past a little park, to the church. On summer days, the walk
is often crowded with tourists and townspeople alike. |
