Saint Paul’s Church National Historic Site is a church and National Historic Site in Mount Vernon, New York, just north of the New York City borough of the Bronx. Established in 1765, Saint Paul’s Church is one of New York’s oldest parishes and was used as a military hospital after the American Revolutionary War Battle of Pell’s Point in 1776. The 5-acre (20,000Â m2) cemetery surrounding the church contains an estimated 9,000 burials. The church and cemetery were designated as a United States National Historic Site in 1978 to protect them from increasing industrialization of the surrounding area.Summary adapted from Wikipedia (CC BY-SA).
