  Have to stop here. Robert Frost was buried in the cemetery next to the church. The inside of the church is gorgeous!!

  A very beautiful building, inside and out. It looked even more beautiful surrounded by autumn colours. The inside is typical of New England with its white/grey colour scheme. Robert Frost's grave behind the church is also worth a visit.

  Beautiful older church with unbelievable wood work. Walk upstairs to see more of the church. As you walk into the the church, on the left side (upstairs) you can see wood carvings from the boys as they sat on the left and girls on the right side.

  Extremely beautiful tucked in the Vermont hillside. Wonderful docents. Steeped in beauty and history.

  The tree lined street with fall leaves. The beautifully maintained church and homes of Old Bennington. Robert Frost's grave. It's like stepping back in time. Great photo opportunities for the photo hobbyist. Do not miss.

  Robert Frost's family gravesite is a must for poetry lovers. The grounds were beautiful in fall. I enjoyed walking in the woods behind the church as well, where the grounds abut the Bennington Museum grounds. The inside of the church is worth seeing if it's open, as the chapel is laid out in boxes, the sanctuary is flooded with daylight, and there is a lovely gallery above.

  You might feel a case of déjà vu as this is one of the most photographed churches in Vermont .It is fascinating to look back into our nations history and visit this small church where so much has happened. Both the church and cemetery are well worth a visit.

  We came by on a beautiful sunny day. The Church stood out as a great example of New England architecture.

  Beautiful old church with an old cemetery. Lots of very old headstones and the site of the Robert Frost family plot. Church was closed but we were able to wander around and it was a very peaceful place and a nice setting in a historic neighborhood. Worth a visit.

  The church must be the most beautiful in New England. Its on a beautiful and historic street which is worth a walk along without the church. When we visited a wedding had just taken place so it looked wonderful with the flowers and candles at the end of each pew. Don't miss this gem.
