Holy Trinity Episcopal Church (also known as The Church of the Holy Trinity) is an Episcopal Church located in Georgetown, Kentucky.

History

The Church of the Holy Trinity was organized in 1847. The church building was constructed during the years 1864-1868 by John and Henry Clarke. The stone for the church was quarried from the actual site. The church was consecrated on June 23, 1870. A parish hall was added to the property in 1966. The free-standing building is compatible with the Gothic architecture of the church building. Adjacent to the church is a memorial garden with a columbarium for the interment of those choosing cremation.[2]

The church building is designated a Kentucky Landmark and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
