Canon SX710 HS Shimla hill station in Himachal Pradesh
Shimla, the capital town of Himachal Pradesh is a quintessence of Victorian era romanticism with realism of the rituals of northern Indian culture and the Christ Church is the embodiment of truth in it. Centrally situated in the upper mall area, it is visibly wonderful in its yellow paint. When you are at the Shimla mall road, tilt your head at the azure firmament and the church won’t go unnoticed.
History of Christ Church
The Christ Church in Shimla is the second oldest church in north India after the St. John’s Church in Meerut. The church was designed in neo-gothic style in 1844 by J.T. Boileau but it was consecrated after 1857. Colonel Dumbleton in 1860 donated the giant round clock that adorns the front facial of the church. The porch was added to the structure in 1873. It started as a shrine to serve the Anglican British community in Shimla and hence is considered as one of the most visited places of worship in the country’s most celebrated hill town. It is governed under the diocese of Amritsar belonging to the Churches of North India (CNI). The current head of clergy is Rev. Mushtaq Achher Malk who looks after all the masses and prayer sessions.
Established
On the 9th of September 1844, the foundation stone of the Christ Church was laid. But it was only in December 1846 that the building got its licence for opening its doors for the Divine Service. It took thirteen years to build the Christ Church. The total cost at that time was Rs 40,000 to 50,000 and the Government had donated Rs 12,000. The rest construction cost came from private sources and local businessmen. The church’s interior can accommodate 574 devotees at a time and that can be expanded by adding chairs to 630. The height of the tower is 90 feet and it has prominent round clock on it, a metal Cross, a brass bell and a series of six small bells. The tower was erected in the year 1900.
The Structural Uniqueness of Christ Church
The yellow painted Christ Church stands tall and prominent on the upper Ridge area of the mall road and is visible from all over the hill town. Time has stopped with the hands of the clock as the rust of age has crept in. The church has five stained glass windows each of which represents the Christian virtues of faith, charity, hope, fortitude and patience.
Stone Pulpit
In 1877, the stone pulpit was constructed in the memory of Bishop Milman who was the then bishop of Calcutta.
Pipe Organ
In 1899, the pipe organ was built by Morgan and Smith of Brighton and then it had cost them Rs 23,000.
Tablets
The tablets in the church are the memorials of Major General Godwin who was the commander in chief in the 1852 expedition.
Glass Windows
In 1890, the east window was erected in memory of the wife of the late Bishop Mathew and this work was done by Buelison and Grylls of London. The fresco paintings on the sanctuary walls were replicated from the design by Lockwood Kipling and the frescos were done by the students of the Mayo School of Art in Lahore.

Christ church in heart of Shyamala Devi
Christ Church, Shimla, is the second oldest church in North India, after St John's Church in Meerut. It is a parish in the Diocese of Amritsar in the Church of North India. Its current incumbent is The Rev. Sohan Lal, whose ecclesiastical designation is presbyter-in-charge.
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. It stands out as one of the prominent landmarks of Shimla and its silhouette is visible for many kilometres around the vicinity of Shimla city. Christ Church is one of the enduring legacies of the British Raj.
Christ Church was designed by Colonel J. T. Boileau in 1844, and the cornerstone was laid on 9 September 1844 by Bishop Daniel Wilson, Bishop of Calcutta. The church was consecrated on 10 January 1857 by Bishop Thomas Daltrey, Bishop of Madras. The estimated cost of construction at that time was 40,000 to 50,000 Rupees. The clock adorning Christ Church was donated by Colonel Dumbleton in 1860. The porch was added in 1873. A British manufactured pipe-organ was installed in 1899 which was extensively renovated in 1932.
On September 11, 1918, Guy Gibson, leader of Operation Chastise, the famous Dambusters Raid of 1943, was christened here.
Christ Church survived the 20th-century partition and the subsequent political upheavals on the Indian subcontinent. The first Indian Chaplain of Christ Church Shimla was Rev. B.S. Chander (1948 to 1957). Christ Church continues to be well maintained and is in relatively good condition. The clock's original mechanical mechanism has more recently been replaced with an electrical equivalent. However, currently whilst all 4 faces of the clock remain in synchronization they rarely reflect the correct time.
The church contains five fine stained glass windows. One represents the Christian virtues of Faith, Hope, Charity, Fortitude, Patience, and Humility. The chancel window was designed by Lockwood Kipling (father of Rudyard Kipling). The pipe-organ of Christ Church is the largest in the Indian subcontinent; it was installed in September 1899
