St. Paul's
Episcopal Church
Site of Fort Augusta, 605 Reynolds Street.
Tours by reservation. (706-724-2485.) This 1918 building is the fifth structure on the
site for St. Paul's, which was built after the fire that destroyed much in the downtown
area in March 1916. The first church was built in 1749, as part of the original Fort
Augusta complex. The Celtic cross in the rear churchyard, adjoining the Riverwalk,
designates the site of Fort Augusta, constructed by the British in 1739.
The
cemetery around the church was used during colonial days through 1817, and is the final
resting place of many notable Georgians. Church open Monday-Friday, 9:00 to 5:00, (summer
hours 9:00 to 4:00); Saturday 10:00 to 12:00. (NR)
