Central Moravian Church
WORLD HERITAGE SITE
Moravian Church Settlements — Bethlehem becomes the 26th World Heritage site in the United States!
Moravian Church Settlements Inscribed on UNESCO World Heritage List
Central Moravian Church celebrates the UNESCO World Heritage inscription recognizing the Moravian Church Settlements of Gracehill (N. Ireland) and Herrnhut (Germany) as well as Bethlehem. As an active and vibrant Moravian faith community in Bethlehem for over 282 years, we are thrilled to be recognized for the ways that our buildings and ministries significantly contribute to community building in serving the common good for all God’s children.
