At the beginning of its history Old Salem church was a house of worship for a community of enslavers and the people they enslaved. In time, this structure became a refuge from war for Fredericksburg’s civilians, the epicenter of a battle, and finally a protected historic landscape. Join us inside Old Salem Church for a program that explores the many-faceted history of this storied place.
