All Saints' Episcopal Church, Episcopal church in University of Texas area, Austin, United States.
All Saints' Episcopal Church is a Gothic Revival building with gray limestone walls, pointed arch windows, and a two-story square bell tower near the campus. The interior features wooden pews, oak flooring, plaster walls, and a pipe organ built by Casavant Frères from Quebec.
The church was founded in 1899 as a chapel for the Young Ladies' Church Institute and grew into a religious center for the university area. It underwent expansion in 1940 and was officially designated as a Recorded Texas Historic Landmark in 2014.
The church serves as a gathering place for the university community and holds regular services and meetings for students and faculty members. It remains an active part of campus life and provides space for worship and social connection.
The building is easy to spot with its distinctive Gothic Revival style and sits within walking distance of the campus for convenient access. The interior features and historic pipe organ are worth seeing when the church is open for services or tours.
The crypt of Bishop George Herbert Kinsolving rests beneath the altar, where he was reinterred during the 1940 expansion. This overlooked detail connects the building to an important early figure in the region's Anglican history.
