Christ Church founded in 1705 is an historic Episcopal parish located at 61 East Main Street in Oyster Bay, New York. Several church buildings have occupied this site, including one that served as soldiers barracks during the Revolutionary War. In the 1870s a Carpenter Gothic style building was erected. In 1925 it was greatly enlarged and encased in stone. Those additions also included striking stained glass windows. President Theodore Roosevelt attended church here, and his wife and children were active members. Roosevelt’s funeral service was held here in 1919. Today Christ Church is a featured site on the Oyster Bay History Walk audio walking tour. ==Church buildings on this site== # Built 1707 (ca).
