Great Valley Baptist Church
Church
Colonial-era church near the Paoli battlefield that served as a field hospital following the September 21, 1777 assault. Wounded American soldiers were treated here after the battle. The church and its cemetery contain graves of Revolutionary War participants. Its use as a hospital reflects the logistical reality of 18th-century warfare, where churches were regularly converted to medical facilities after engagements.
