Right next to Grand Oriental Hotel.
Only got to know about the church thanks to a foreigner. Seems the oldest church is Colombo which is made during the Dutch Colonial Era. Must visit historical monument.
On the outside St Peter’s doesn’t look much like a church at all. However, once you go inside, it cannot be mistaken for anything other than a historic several century-old church. The high roof, stained limestone walls, marble floors, arched glass windows, wooden pews blackened with age, wood and marble plaques on the walls in memory of some of the long gone members of the congregation, and the sense of peace and quiet; all lend to it’s beauty and charm. The shadowed spaces speak of deep history and whispered secrets. It’s said that the foundations of the place are the original structures from the Portuguese monastery.
Unique & A very special church. Very calming & Peaceful :)
First used for Divine service in the year 1804 and consecrated in the year 1921 and still going strong.The first Bishop of India, Srilanka, Pakistan who was designated the Metropolitan Bishop stationed at Calcutta. He left in the Lord on April 8th 1826 and there is a commemorative stone near altar. It is pleasure to attend service and songs in particular. Worth visiting.
Historical church in the country. The church is open daily for private prayer from 7.00 am to 5.00 pm on all seven days except on Monday.
An amazing building in an almost inaccessible area.
