St. Paul's Church National Historic Site

Built in 1665 and declared a National Historic Site in 1943, Saint Paul's Church's original façade and bell are intact, including the old graveyard and magnificent 1830 organ.

The site is small, but it's worth a visit. The outside of the church is beautiful and walking around the cemetery looking at all the old gravestones (some dating back to the 1700's) was very interesting. There's a small museum next to the church where they hold events. On Presidents' Day I attended a talk by a historian formerly from the Truman Presidential Library about Truman's immigration policies and it was really educational. The park ranger said they do a few events a month, so keep an eye out and plan your visit accordingly. The park ranger was very kind and knowledgeable. He took extra time to show me specific gravestones, like the one of Charles Taft, a doctor who was with Lincoln when he was shot. There is parking onsite, restrooms in the museum/visitor center, and it's an easy rideshare from NYC if you don't want to take the subway.
