An Anglican cathedral consecrated in 1812, one of Bengaluru's oldest churches, built in a Neoclassical style with a distinctive white portico and dome inspired by London's St Paul's Cathedral. It served the British garrison and civilian community during the colonial Cantonment era. Memorial plaques inside commemorate British soldiers and administrators who served in Bengaluru. It remains an active Church of South India parish alongside its heritage status.
