Cobb's Hill Methodist Church

Bermuda


This 1827 church is not Bermuda's prettiest, but it is historically significant to the island's black community. As its sign proclaims, it was 'built by slaves in moonlight.' Banned from worshipping alongside white settlers, free blacks and slaves built their own house of worship, often at night, since that's that only spare time they had.
