Trinity Church is a historic episcopal church in Boston. It is a popular attraction and an example of architectural brilliance, artistic beauty, and historical depth.
The church was constructed in 1877 and has been praised as one of the finest churches ever designed. The church's design was built on Romanesque European designs with modern additions, including grand towers, murals, and large stained glass windows. Its innovative design by Henry Hobson Richardson set a new standard in American architecture, while its rich interior decorations by John La Farge and others make it a treasure trove of art.
Despite its renowned artistry and architecture, Trinity Church is not a museum. Rather, it is a sacred place of worship and service where a vibrant community of faithful Christians and visitors gather on a daily basis.
The church is open for visitors, and guided tours are available. Everyone of every background is invited to participate in programs, attend services, or simply sit in the sanctuary and take in the beauty and quiet. Click here for more information.
