Description
Site of the U.S. presidential Whig convention of 1839, which nominated William Henry Harrison and John Tyler, who both became U.S. Presidents, making Harrisburg the smallest city to ever host a U.S. presidential convention. Church’s roots date to 1814 through an earlier building at this site. Present building, though altered in the 1860s, dates to 1838.
