Holy Trinity Church, Nuwara Eliya, Anglican church in Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka

The Holy Trinity Church exhibits early English Gothic architectural elements with a bell tower and stained glass windows along Church Road.

Constructed by the local garrison of the 15th Regiment under Major James Brunker's supervision, the church opened its doors in February 1852.

The church maintains regular Anglican services while housing memorial plaques dedicated to notable figures from the Royal Botanical Gardens and colonial period.

Located 4.4 kilometers from central Nuwara Eliya, visitors can reach the church via the Peradeniya-Badulla-Chenkaladi Highway through Church Road.

Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip attended a service in 1954, contributing a blue carpet and commemorative stained glass window to the church.
