As a museum, the First Church holds valuable pieces of art in the form of inlaid and painted stained-glass windows, the custom-made Moller organ, and historical documents dating back to 1702. The First Church is also notable because over half its interior is made of rubbed and polished oak and the original chandeliers light the interior of the sanctuary.

As a historical museum and sanctuary, the First Church represents all that is good about the community of Groton. Residents of Groton built the beautiful 101-year-old fieldstone structure in 1902 and it is one of the city's most treasured landmarks. This website provides an opportunity to learn about the history of First Church meeting houses, past and present, and the artistic treasures we need to preserve.
