Old Zion Lutheran Church

“For wherever two or three are gathered together in My name, there am I in the midst of them” Matthew 18:20 (KJV)

Welcome to Old Zion - Herzlich Willkommen!

For nearly three centuries, Old Zion Lutheran Church has proclaimed Christ in the heart of Philadelphia.

Today we continue that mission through worship, prayer, sacred music, and fellowship centered on God’s Word and Sacraments.
Whether you are visiting Philadelphia, exploring the Christian faith, or searching for a church home,
we invite you to worship with us and become part of our continuing story.

Located at the corner of North Broad and Mount Vernon Streets, just six blocks north of City Hall,
Old Zion has served Philadelphia since 1742.

Important Updates


Sidewalk Repair - Please use Mt. Vernon St. Entrance

Please note - due to ongoing curb/sidewalk repair conducted by the city, it will be unsafe to utilize the Main Entrance to the Sanctuary on the corner of Broad and Mt. Vernon St.'s. We ask that everyone enter the building using the Mt. Vernon Street side entrance, marked by the green arrow on the image below. Sidewalk repair should not affect the availability of street parking in the area, and the roads remain open.
