St Paul's, Anglican church in Jewellery Quarter, Birmingham, England
St Paul's is an Anglican church in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter built with a rectangular layout and neo-classical style. The structure combines Bath Stone and brick, featuring round-arched windows, internal galleries, and an apsidal chancel.
The church was built between 1777 and 1779 as a chapel of ease serving St Martin in the Bullring. It remains the sole surviving 18th-century church building in Birmingham.
The east window displays an enameled stained-glass panel from 1791 by Francis Eginton, depicting the Conversion of Paul from Benjamin West's painting. This artwork remains a striking feature inside the church today.
The building is accessible and includes facilities such as accessible restrooms and nearby parking spaces. Bus stops close by make it easy to reach by public transportation.
The Millennium Window features hallmarks for gold, silver, and platinum from Birmingham Assay Office, with angels depicted pouring molten metal. This modern window connects the quarter's craft heritage with religious symbolism.
