it was earlier known as Lord’s Church. The church has eight exquisite pre-Raphaelite and Victorian stained-glass windows and a rare historic William Hill organ, which was bought to the church in the 1880. Near the church is a deodar tree planted by HRH the princess of Wales in March 1906 after attending the morning service at the Church and a bible dating from 1889 kept on an exquisite stand which is dismountable in six parts.

This place is such a so beautiful and really the mansuri the queens of hills

An old piece of history, so lost to time that even the locals can't tell it's location. It was a bit hard to find, with Google giving intractable paths. Couldn't see the stained glass windows inside as the Church opens only on Sundays. What a site it must have been in the colonial times, looking over the valley from the mall road

Christ Church is a beautiful old church just a few meters off, above the Mussoorie Mall Road. We saw it on our walk the first day and then got the chance to visit it on 23rd June 2022. the entry is via a short uphill road. As you stand outside and see the small iron gate and the few steps inside, you can feel the magic. The Building is pretty old British and teleports you back in time. The sky was absolutely beautiful as I clicked some pics. No-one stopped up as we entered the courtyard. We were admiring the views when the caretaker came to us and asked us if we wanted to see the inside. What an opportunity. The inside is amazing with stained glass artwork, the Gothic architecture and deep silence. We stayed there for a couple of minutes, made a small donation and came back outside. Oh, what a wonderful experience. Must visit, if you are at Mussoorie.

Christ Church is the first church in the Himalayan region, one of the oldest churches. It has one of the most beautiful stencil art. This church has a lot of history associated with it. There's a deodar tree planted by the Queen of England. Do take your time to explore this place.

The location is right in the center of Mussoorie, but a bit difficult to find because there are no signs, impressed with the peaceful and ancient beauty of the church.
