The Belltower Venue

The Belltower, located in the charming Hudson Valley Town of Rosendale, New York, is a unique and welcoming venue for weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, private celebrations, fundraisers, conferences, seminars, and cultural events. With a rich history dating back to 1896, the Belltower was originally built as a Dutch Reformed Church and has since been transformed into a stunning event space that can accommodate up to 120 guests.

The spacious main floor of the visually prominent Gothic-style brick building is 2,500 sq ft in size and features high vaulted tin ceilings, an abundance of natural light, and beautifully restored fir flooring. The original wood-staged pulpit provides a distinctive setting for ceremonies, speeches, presentations, and musical performances, while the soaring front window offers a breathtaking view.
