This is one of the most beautiful & peaceful place in Nuwara Eliya. You'll bever regret spending time here especially in the evening (after 4pm). The atmosphere is something cannot be described in words. Go inside & inquire about the pipe organ out there, you'll get amazed for sure! PS: Photography is prohibited & taken with permission.

The church of the Holy Trinity was thus built in 1845 atop a hillock a little away from the flurry of Nuwara Eliya town.The oldest pipe organ of Asia available in here. They are playing it every Sunday for the church mass I'm not uploading the photos of inside church bcz u must go there and see

Wonderful church with a significant historical value, connected to the colonial history of Ceylon and Nuwara Eliya, a place all tourists better not miss. Now (from Jan 2024) open for public throughout the day (earlier used to be open only from 1500 - 1800 hrs). It's an Anglican church, considered to be the oldest in the city, consecrated in 1852. It's a cruciform church building (clearly visible in satellite view on Google maps) with a conical shaped wooden roof. The colorful stained glasses is a highlight of the building which are artistic masterpieces. The centenary old pipe organ had been restored and is being currently used. The benches and most of the furniture and fixtures are custom-made from imported wood. Most are preserved in it's original form. The Church is now declared (in 2007) as an archeological protected monument. There are a number of memorial plaques on the walls as well as the churchyard. These include the plaques for several renowned British governors, bureaucrats, their families, friends and ex-servicemen who lost their lives during WW2. These include - Francis Henry Hamilton (the son of Gavin Hamilton, government agent for revenue & commerce, who built the Hamilton Canal), Lady Carolina Ridgeway (the wife of Sir Joseph West Ridgeway, who was instrumental in building the Lady Ridgeway Hospital in Colombo), family members of Samuel Baker. Douglas, the caretaker, is very knowledgeable of the historical importance of the church and all it's content. You'll be amazed with all his explanations. The Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip had visited the Church in 1954, and said to have gifted two main stained glass windows in remembrance of their visit (Douglas will show you). Highly recommended for all visitors to Little England.

More interesting place. Built beautifully. One of tallest piano can see there. Queen Elizabeth visited to this church. Graveyard of 1st and 2nd world way soldiers one more interesting. No photographs allowed. When you in Nuwaraeliya you should not miss it.

Holy Trinity Chappel- Nuwara eliya A meeting was held in 1845 to build a chappel and one gentleman named Nelson was appointed as an architect. the estimated cost was sterling pounds 900. work was done by the 15th regiment under the supervision of Major Bunker. the chappel was opened on 24th february 1852. further enlargements were done to the eastern side in 1889. it also has a pipe orgen which is still functioning. the chappel land has many tomb stones which tell the hard and difficult story of britishers life in the island. Many have died at the very young age due to malaria and accidents.

Its over 170 year old church build by England architecture, most of the structure in this church made by wood even the flooring, and only the pipe Organ still uses in sri lanka known to my knowledge. Wonderful church to visit but not much information giving out about this church.

A very nice church to visit. The gentleman was kind enough to explain the value of the church and how old it is. The Queen visited it twice. We signed in the guest book, which is preserved.

A beautiful British church built in the colonial era still standing in its original glory. All the antiques are preserved and is still in the colonial state. Only a small walk from the Victoria Garden and thus it's recommended to visit the place when nearby. Make sure to visit in the evening as the attendant is available at that time who will explain the history of the place and its significance. Take time to walk around the cemetery and to embrace the calm and quiet environment of the church.

We went for the 7 am sinhala mass last weekend. It's a beautiful historic Anglican church. It gives you a peaceful and calm feeling when your inside. The service was nice with only a few people. If your in Nuwara eliya you should pay visit and have look around since there's an old grave yard too.

Historic anglican church actively worshiping. Have cemetery with graves belonging to European families. Have an ancient pipe organ and it is being used in masses.

Beautiful church, the Samuel Bakers family tombs and specially that of Mrs. Bakers tomb makes the tombstones special. Samuel B is credited for discovering the source of the white Nile which he names Lake Victoria. On his excursions to and in Africa, Florence his wife accompanied him. The bakers made Nuwara Eliya their home in 1864. The stained glass window gifted by her majesty Queen Elizabeth II to commemorate her visit to the church in 1954, the beautiful Nora's Arch structure of the church roof makes the Holy Trinity a beautiful stroll for 2 hours . Photos inside the church was not allowed

A church with a wonderful history. It was maintained well and the site guide we met at the church explained the importance of this church very nicely. Loved the overall experience.

An ancient church built by British soldiers... South asias largest Pipe organ situated in the church... mintained by UK government and grave yard of British soldiers and their reltives situated here...

I wanted to write an article about this Pipe Organ as this is the Asia's oldest pipe organ and it is still working properly. We had this journey in 2013 and got to know many details from the parish.

Triple language congregation. Lovely faithfull....

Built in the 1830s this is one of the most beautiful places in nuwara eliya. We visited in the afternoon when there was a choir practice going on. There is a old pipe organ, don't forget to see. Also have a look at painted windows. Sit inside and see everything with peace. If you are not creeped out by the cemetery, do read the tombstones. The trees are very beautiful. Visit in the afternoon, you may call them and ask if you can visit just to make sure the church is open. Do take permission before taking pictures. Do not litter or smoke.
