"Christ Church in Alexandria, Virginia, is an Episcopal Church built from 1767 to 1773 by John Carlyle.

The church was designed by James Wren in the colonial style, and frequented by such notables as George Washington, Robert E. Lee, and Philip Richard Fendall I. In addition, Franklin Roosevelt and Winston Churchill visited the church on January 1, 1942 to commemorate World Day of Prayer for Peace. Today, the church has over 2,400 members and is an integral architectural and spiritual part of Alexandria.

It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1970." (visit link)
