St George's Church, Isle of Man

St George's Church is an Anglican place of worship located on a hillside overlooking Douglas Harbour with distinctive Gothic Revival design. Its most prominent feature is a bell tower containing twelve bells that dominate the surrounding skyline.

Construction began in 1761 but faced financial difficulties that delayed the project until 1776, with completion finally achieved in 1781. The lengthy building period reflects the economic challenges the island experienced during this era.

The church serves the community as both a place of worship and a concert hall, where regular services and musical performances coexist. Visitors experience this dual purpose as a living space for both spiritual and artistic expression.

The church is typically open to visitors from Tuesday through Friday between 9:30 AM and 1:30 PM for exploration. Wheelchair access and a hearing-aid loop system are available to assist visitors with particular needs.

The building houses an organ built in 1741 by Harris & Byfield, connecting the building to major musical history. This historic instrument played a role during the premiere performance of Handel's Messiah in Dublin in 1742.
