All Saints Church, Srinagar

All Saints Church is an Anglican cathedral in Srinagar built from stone and brick with notable architectural features. The building displays a prominent tower and incorporates Gothic design elements visible in its walls and window frames.

The church was built between 1875 and 1880 during British colonial rule as part of the British presence in Kashmir. Following fires in the mid-20th century, the building was reconstructed and reinforced several times.

The church serves as a gathering place for the Christian community in a region where most people practice Islam. Visitors notice how this space holds meaning for those who worship here regularly.

The church is located in an accessible part of Srinagar and welcomes visitors, though local conditions are worth noting before a visit. The building has limited space, so a relaxed approach to viewing works best.

After the fires, the building was reconstructed using fewer wooden elements and more fire-resistant materials throughout. This rebuild gave the interior a different character from the original Victorian design.
