St. Bernard's Church

St. Bernard's Church is a church building in Gibraltar featuring Gothic design with two pointed towers, ornate stained glass windows, and detailed stone carving on its exterior walls. The structure combines British and Spanish architectural influences throughout its design.

The building was constructed in the 1880s during a period when the island was modernizing under British rule. Its design reflects the architectural trends that shaped Europe throughout that era.

The interior features detailed stained glass windows showing saints and biblical stories, while carved wooden altars showcase the local craft traditions of the island.

The building is regularly open for visitors interested in exploring its architecture and interior details. Visiting on quieter weekdays allows you to enjoy the space without crowds.

Many of the stones in the church still bear marks from the craftspeople who helped build it. These marks allow visitors today to see the individual work of the stonemasons from that era.
