St. John's Church Built in 1734. It is designated as a state and national landmark. The American Revolution had a serious impact on the church. It lost its leadership and parishioners. It fell into disrepair. During the Civil War it was a victim of the Union cavalry. The interior was destroyed by the Army. In 1877 Capt. Robert E. Lee Jr. purchased the property from the Commonwealth of Virginia. It has emerged from several phases of extensive restoration and is now again a beautiful and functional building.
