St. Andrew's Church

Located near Dalhousie square of Central Kolkata, this Presbyterian church was established in 1818. The church is well maintained by the Church Union of North India.

The church is very beautiful and ambience is so touchy that you can easily spend few hours in this Church❤

This area is my fav for all time

A beautifully maintained, well decorated church, situated amidst the most viable route of the city.
Thus, it is very convenient for the visitors to have a glance.
Sundays, morning at 10, the church organises regular weekly prayer. So, take a note of the time.

This Presbyterian church is a landmark building of central kolkata. Situated in the north east corner of 'Laldighi '(erstwhile Dalhousie square),St. Andrew's church was built in the year of 1818. The then ruler of India, East India Company under Governor General lord Moira funded rupees one lakh to its foundation. Initially the church was under the influence of the church of Scotland . Several decades later in 1970 , it joined the union of church of North India ( CNI ).

You can say that St. Andrew’s Church is the kind of Colonial Church and it stands on the North East part of the Dalhousie Square. This Scottish Kirk was being established in the ancient Grecian style and you can call it to be the first landmark that you can see when travelling from Bowbazar to Dalhousie. This is the Lord Jesus Church and it is located in the area of Taltala and this is one of the perfect places to visit in the city of Kolkata. Before, this was known as the Church of the Scotland Presbyterian. This place of worship was given to the Jesuits in 1969. The church is the centre of various apostolic activities.

A beautiful church of early eighteen hundreds has a white facade with an inspiring spire. The church is located in a major junction of the city adjacent to the 'Writers Building'. It has imposing pillars at the entrance - both in the front and the backsides. Church offices are located at the entrance.
The church has an elevated pulpit and a semi circular seating arrangement built using classic ebony wood. The pew chairs have woven seats. It has a semicircular balcony for patrons. Its walls bear a number of plaques and plates of marble and stone put up for dedication and remembrance. One such plaque has been put up by Calcutta Police on the first Police Commemoration Day. It has lots of stories to tell for the coming generations.

The church was opened in the year 1818 and It is located just beside writers building of Kolkata.

This church always shows up in historical photos of Kolkata , so it made it even more special to see it in person.

Estd during the period of east india co. Heritage building..this area has a same design like Trafalgar square , London, UK

It was fabulous on the Christmas Eve. People and the caretaker were so good. They were humble and gentle, full of information. It was a really good experience.

Pretty peaceful atmosphere. It is a protestant church.

A Christian church are situated at the center of the road. Nice place for traveling. You can see a British colonial architecture.

Good place, calm atmosphere, you can visit it for free.

This church gives you a feeling of early Raj era Calcutta. When the Governor General will ride down the road with his wife by the side. But then there was not much of traffic and his carriage would have taken him to the steps of this beautiful church. When the metro tunnel was being dug recently it was feared that it may crash. But enough precautions were taken and the church benefitted from the repairs done to stabilise the structure. Great place to visit any time.

Nice place of missionary peers

One of the most iconic structures in kolkata. People visiting Kolkata should definitely visit this place to appreciate the colonial architecture. Near to laldighi area. I liked it very much.

Beautiful church and good events

One of the oldest Church of Kolkata. Opposite side of Mahakaran.

The interior designs are beautiful.A friendly place which welcomes everyone.The first time I went to the church I felt peace of mind and I feel so happy to go here.I look forward to Sundays to hear the God's word and sing praises to God and hear the melodious angelic voices of the choir and the members of the church.😊
