"Built in the neo-Gothic style in 1857 to serve the largely,"

Anglican British community in what was formerly called Simla.

Christ Church is situated on The Ridge where it stands out as one of the prominent landmarks of Shimla. The silhouette of Christ Church is visible for miles around the vicinity of Shimla city. Christ Church remains one of the enduring legacies of the British Raj !

"Christ Church was designed by Colonel J. T. Boileau in 1844,"

and the church was consecrated after 1857.

Christ Church has survived partition and the subsequent political upheavals on the Indian subcontinent. Christ Church continues to be very well maintained and remains in good condition. The clock, however, no longer functions - due to entropy !
