Yokohama Christ Church, Anglican church in Yamatecho, Japan.

The stone church building combines Norman and Gothic architectural elements with steel-reinforced concrete frame construction, featuring strong structural integrity and design.

Founded in 1863 by Michael Buckworth Bailey, the current structure was built in 1931 by architect Jay Hill Morgan after previous versions were destroyed.

The congregation brings together English and Japanese speakers for religious services, reflecting the international character of Yokohama's community.

Sunday services welcome visitors from all denominations, with weekly announcements available through email subscription and online bulletins.

The church structure incorporates Oya Stone, a Japanese building material, demonstrating the fusion of Western architecture with local construction methods.
