Bethabara Moravian Church is a Protestant congregation of the Moravian Church located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Founded as the first Moravian settlement in North Carolina on November 17, 1753, Bethabara served as the center of Moravian work in the South until 1766. The Bethabara Historic District, including the Historic Church, were declared a National Historic Landmark in 1999.[1]
The congregation is still active, meeting in an updated building at 2100 Bethabara Road.
What remains of the historic Bethabara settlement is maintained by the City of Winston-Salem.
