The First Presbyterian Church of Bangkok, Presbyterian church building in Samre, Thailand
The First Presbyterian Church of Bangkok stands with a rectangular floor plan featuring three column spans and decorative stucco work on its river-facing facade.
The American Presbyterian Mission established the church in 1849, during the reign of King Rama III, with missionaries settling in the Kudeejeen community.
The church foundation led to the creation of Bangkok Christian College, which started as a boys school and developed into a significant educational institution.
Located on the western bank of the Chao Phraya River, the church building contains a single-storey structure with a bell tower added in 1912.
The Fine Arts Department of Thailand registered both the church and Windsor House as historical sites, marking their importance in Bangkok's heritage.
