    Great view

    This review is for the building and grounds only. The architecture of the church is stunning. If you enjoy taking pictures, I highly recommend stopping by here. The cemetery is one of the oldest in the city so it was interesting to read the different headstone inscriptions.

    This 18th Century church was destroyed in the great fire of 1861 and rebuild in a Romanesque style - One of the oldest churches in Charleston, it is surrounded by an ancient graveyard and I s a vivid reminder of the history of the city It's definitely worth a stop and a visit

    This review is for the cemetary only. It was beautiful and quietly intense. It appeared to be well kept, we spent our time there looking for the oldest headstones. I recommend visiting to anyone interested in the history of Chareston. The comments left on a few headstones were fascinating.

    This is a beautiful Church and they have several services at Christmas time. They welcome visitors and it is worth a visit if you are in town.

    Didn't get to go inside, but very interesting architecturally. Very pretty and old cemetery to wander through. Walk couple doors down meeting street to Meyer Vogl gallery to view some very nice paintings of Charleston area. When we visited, she was exhibiting her work from area north of Calhoun. Prices, by the way, between $900 and $7500

    The church is beautiful.

    See all

    I have to say, deciding to have our ceremony at the Circular Church was hands-down, the right decision.

    Established in 1681, St. Philip's is the oldest church congregation in the state of South Carolina…read more After they moved to their Church Street site in 1710, they built a church that lasted until it was wiped out by a fire. The current building was constructed in 1835 and boasts a beautiful, tall steeple. The interior of St. Philip's is stunning so if you're exploring the churchyard or cemetery, go inside the church and look around. It's usually open, with helpful guides to tell you all about it. Fact: it is the highest point in Charleston. Also, The church you see today is the second on this site. The original held its first service on Easter Sunday 1723, and burned down in a fire in February 1835. It also has the distinction of having both a churchyard (graves surrounding the church building itself) and a cemetery across the street. The view of Church Street punctuated by St. Philip's remains one of Charleston's most photographed spots.

    Most visitors and even locals know St. Philip's Church from its prominent and defining exterior…read more IT is a landmark in Historic Charleston, South Carolina. From its color, to its height to its surrounding cemetery with prominent forefathers buried all around including John C. Calhoun. You must walk inside.

Our funeral director, Mason Hand went above and beyond to provide us with exemplary service. He was so supportive, respectful and also very knowledgeable. He was able to guide us to make informed decisions during a very difficult time. The funeral costs were transparent and their services felt like a good value. They handled the logistics seamlessly during a difficult day for our family. They also seemed to tailor the service to fit our needs. The funeral home was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. I would highly recommend this funeral home and also Mason Hand. Our family truly appreciates you! Thank you, Summar Snyder Simpson Family 5/07/2026

The 23 acre gardens are beautifully maintained, and the roads and pathways are constantly being repaired and cleaned. At the very back section is a memorial wall for the cremated, and this is the area where there are sections for other faiths. Payment to the gardens includes purchase of the lot. They have guidelines on the headstone and once this is paid for, the cost includes lifelong maintenance. The staff are wonderful. In particular, working with Patrick Mallard was a pleasure and very comforting. He is very respectful, and working with him was immensely reassuring. He worked on designing the headstone with me and was very respectful of my faith, and did the best he could to make sure my mother had the most appropriate headstone. I can't praise him enough as to how great he was. My mother passed away a few years ago and I see how well Mr. Mallard and his staff continue to upkeep the gardens. I find great solace in coming here every week and I feel Mr Mallard and his team should be recognized.
