Emmanuel Episcopal Church

Emmanuel Episcopal Church, church building in Geneva, Switzerland

Emmanuel Episcopal Church is an Anglican church building in Geneva, set on land reclaimed from the lake in the early 18th century and aligned roughly south-west to north-east because of its surroundings. Its stained glass windows are under a preservation order, and the East window above the altar shows both Christ in Glory and Jesus as a baby, a pairing otherwise known in Europe only in a window in Genoa.

The congregation began in 1873, when the Episcopal Church sent Rev. William Chauncy Langdon to Geneva; its first service was held in the Temple de la Fusterie on 28 July 1873. In June 1875 this group merged with an independent American "Union" church founded in 1872. The foundation stone of the present building was laid on 27 July 1877 by former US President Ulysses S. Grant, on land given by Henry I. Barbey.

The building sits near Place des Alpes and is easily accessible on foot in the city center. Services are held on Sunday mornings with both in-person and online options available for visitors.

The East window above the altar shows both Christ in Glory and Jesus as a baby; the only other window known in Europe with this pairing is in Genoa. It was originally lit by natural light, but the 1930 Parish House blocked it, so it is now lit artificially.
