St Helen's Church, Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Grade I listed Anglican church in Ashby-de-la-Zouch, England

St Helen's Church features a large 15th-century west tower supported by corner buttresses and crowned with battlements and stone pinnacles.

The church construction began in 1474 under William Hastings, who simultaneously transformed his adjacent manor house into a fortified castle.

The Victorian stained glass windows, installed in 1879 by Lavers, Barraud and Westlake, depict scenes from the Life of Christ in sequential order.

The church holds midweek Holy Communion services every Wednesday at 10:30 a.m., with special arrangements for different weeks of the month.

The Hastings Chapel contains notable alabaster tombs, including a memorial by Michael Rysbrack for Theophilus Hastings, the 9th Earl of Huntingdon.
