All Saints' Church, Northampton, Anglican church in central Northampton, England
All Saints' Church is an Anglican place of worship in central Northampton with a grand dome supported by four Ionic columns. The interior features a lantern-topped ceiling and barrel-vaulted side aisles that shape the space's distinctive character.
The earlier building was destroyed in the Great Fire of Northampton in 1675 and subsequently rebuilt with support from King Charles II. This royal contribution was a significant gesture during the city's reconstruction period.
The church hosts regular Anglican worship and shapes the city's musical life through three choirs that rehearse and perform within its walls. The singers are a regular part of community life and actively shape religious and cultural gatherings.
The building offers wheelchair accessibility throughout all areas with restroom facilities located at the northern section of the Narthex entrance. Visitors can navigate the full interior comfortably.
On Oak Apple Day at noon, a Latin hymn rings out from the church roof while the Mayor of Northampton places oak leaves on the Charles II statue. This yearly tradition brings together music, history, and local ceremony in an unusual way.
