Christ Church is a historic Anglican church located at Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. It was built in 1726, and is a rectangular brick Colonial building. It has a hipped roof with cupola. Towards the close of the American Civil War, Union cavalry used the church as a stable and the interior was gutted. The building was rebuilt by 1874, and in 1961, wings containing a sacristy and a rector’s office were added.[2][3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.[1]
