    The Auditorium's pipe organ is one of the 25 largest in the world, installed in 1908 by the innovative organ.

  • @mrtheoneandonly83 Illuminated signs flanking the organ's pipework proclaim "Holiness to the Lord" and "So be ye holy," a reflection of the emphasis at camp meetings. Another such reflection is the illuminated Memorial Cross, placed on the Auditorium's front facade at the end of World War II. It is located in the seaside town of Ocean Grove NJ, about two blocks from the beach and the Atlantic Ocean. About a one hour drive south of New York City - an awesome place!

    The curving ceiling allowed a preacher to be heard throughout the vast space in the days prior to amplification. The building still features lighting systems quite advanced for their time, such as the parallel rows of incandescent bulbs that adorn the varnished wood ceiling paneling. Also novel is a large American flag (c. 1916) covered with light bulbs that flash in an undulating manner.

    The Great Auditorium is mostly unchanged after being constructed in 1894 on bridge-like iron trusses laid on stone foundations. Aside from the trusses, the structure is made entirely of wood. The building features numerous "barn door" entrances with colored glass, dormers, and panels that open for ventilation. The present audience seating accommodates 6,217, though the original arrangement was closer to 10,000.

  • Is this the church that the Cosby's went to in the one episode??? Can't remember what it was, but Phylica Raashad sang a song in the church!

  • This church is big, whats the name of this church and where it located?

  • This is something every New Jersey native should experience first hand. This IS Ocean Grove!

  • There are almost more ushers there than other people for the show.

  • Ha I know this song I sing in The Graet Auditorium Choir with my mom.

  • Very fun to see. My dad's one of those ushers, and my mom is probably up in the choir. Thanks for recording this!
