Augustine Congregational Church, Category B listed church building in Old Town, Edinburgh, Scotland

The Augustine Congregational Church stands on George IV Bridge with a three-tiered tower combining Romanesque, Renaissance, and Classical architectural elements.

The current church building, designed by architects JMW and JM Hay, replaced an earlier chapel on Chambers Street and opened its doors in 1861.

The church maintains a local ecumenical partnership with St Columba's-by-the-Castle and Greyfriars Tolbooth, offering regular services and community gatherings.

The location near Edinburgh Castle and the National Library provides convenient access to public transportation and secure bicycle storage for visitors.

The church features two ground-level stained glass windows with backlighting, dedicated to Dr Lindsay Alexander and his wife Mary, designed by Robert Burns.
