English: Christ Church, known as Old Swedes, parts built in 1760, founded earlier by Swedish community as a Lutheran church, but Episcopalian since about 1790.

In Bridgeport, PA, but sign nearby says that it's on the border of the Village of Swedesburg, Upper Merion Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The Pennsylvania Turnpike, I-276, is about 20 years south of the church
