Church of St Luke, Liverpool, Anglican church in Liverpool, England
The Gothic Revival church features a sandstone structure with a 133-foot tower, polygonal buttresses, and a battlemented parapet at the corner of Berry Street.
The church construction began in 1811 under architect John Foster Sr., and during the Liverpool Blitz of 1941, it sustained severe damage from German bombing.
The structure contains the Irish Famine Memorial sculpture by Éamonn O'Docherty and serves as a testament to Liverpool's connection with Ireland's history.
The roofless building remains open to visitors and functions as an exhibition space, managed by the organization Bombed Out Church since 2014.
The building stands without a roof as a deliberate war memorial, marking the impact of World War II on Liverpool's architectural landscape.
