About Our Lady of Mount Carmel - Annunciation Parish
Welcome to Our Lady of Mount Carmel - Annunciation Parish, a historic shrine church and parish complex serving the Brooklyn community. Located in Williamsburg at the intersection of North 8th Street and Havemeyer Street, and with the Annunciation location at North 5th & Havemeyer, OLMC - Annunciation brings together decades of faith, culture, and community events. While seating capacity isn’t publicly published, this venue is known for its active parish life, annual Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, and its role as a cultural centerpiece in Brooklyn’s vibrant Williamsburg neighborhood.
Whether you’re attending a service, a festival, or a community event, plan ahead with local transit options and nearby lodging and dining to make the most of your visit.
Transit access is convenient via several subway lines: the L train at Bedford Ave, the J/M/Z at Marcy Ave, and the G at Metropolitan Ave. There isn’t published parish parking, so most attendees opt for street parking or nearby municipal lots. For guests traveling from out of town, Williamsburg offers a handful of hotel options within a half-mile radius, including Moxy Williamsburg, Wythe Hotel, The William Vale, and Hoxton Williamsburg. After your visit, consider exploring local dining—many spots in the area pair well with evenings at the parish grounds or nearby venues. If you’re planning a special event or group visit, we can help coordinate logistics and secure seats for gatherings that align with the parish calendar.
