St. Mary's Church

I would say being a Christian that this church is awesome. Although space is less but how it is managed and cleaned that matters. You can visit here in morning hours and can spend some valuable time in here, you will definitely get inner peace. Time slots are there for opening and closure. Side view to this is very beautiful and I believe in rainy season it is more beautiful. Do visit if you are going towards tip-n-top.

This church was built in British period in this cantonment area of Lansdowne. Location is mutch beautiful, surrounded with hills, you can see chaukhambha peak from here without telescopic help.
This church is under Indian army and they they called it library.
This church never conduct mass or prayer.

this church is around 125 years old but well maintained by our defence, an amazing architecture , still intact and standing robust for many more years ahead.

St. Mary's Church, Lansdowne

Entry Fee: None. We got the free entry.

Visited on Saturday. It was open for all.

Location: At a distance of 2.5 km from Lansdowne Market. Near Tip-In-Top hill point of Lansdowne.

St. Mary's Church was built by Col. A.H.B Hume of the Royal Engineers. Construction of this Church began in 1895 and was completed in 1896. (I have covered a brief history in the photos).

This church was closed after 1947 and was later converted into a museum by the Garhwal Rifles Regimental Centre.

This Church has a picture gallery and a short 10 minute documentary on history of Lansdowne and Garhwal Rifles is played.

Note: It is open only on the weekends.

Very quite clean and soothing church. I liked seating at the church very much. Must visit it is so beautiful.

This church is filled with peace and tranquility. It was built in the 18th century. Earlier a video of the brave Garhwal Regiments were often shown for 10mins by a projecter film. But now it's discontinued due to covid norms I guess. Surrounding the church is pine forest which keeps the temperature inside the church cool and soothing to some extent.

Nestled in the serene and quaint Hill station of Lansdowne, this place of worship is of the British Era.
It's approx 2km from Lansdowne Market.
Tip N Top view point is just 500 meters from the church.
History of the church is written on the board.
There is one eating joint also close by but expensive.
A must visit if you are in Lansdowne.

Beautiful church at the top of the hill which was built during British empire.. Though a century old building but it still stands tall and erect. The church is maintained by Garhwal rifles.
