MORE ON OUR MEETINGHOUSE TOUR
You have driven by the big white church on the hill in Sudbury Center many times, but do you know how important a part it played in the town’s history? Take a tour of the First Parish of Sudbury and learn all about it—inside and out. See the organ and peer up into the steeple. Find out who paid to build it and why. Join us for one of two tours.
