Holy Trinity Scottish Episcopal Church, Stirling
If you're a visitor to Stirling, we invite you to come and see inside our beautiful church building. It's the only Episcopal church in Stirling and our fascinating history is displayed for all to see in its memorials and stained glass.
Built to the design of the renowned Scottish architect Sir Robert Rowand Anderson between 1875 and 1878, this is a fine, little-altered example of the Victorian Gothic style of church architecture. Inside, it contains a remarkable collection of twenty-two stained glass windows, some of which are described as 'outstanding' in the Pevsner Architectural Guide, a remarkable set of memorial tablets dating back to the early 19th century and a Memorial Chapel created by Sir Robert Lorimer in 1920-21 which includes a wood-carved Roll of Honour. Information on these memorials and windows, including biographical details and photographs of many of the peeople commemorated, are at www.holytrinitystirling.org.
Open on Saturdays during summer months. Dates and times are announced at
www.holytrinitystirling.org.
Also open for services at 11:00 on Fridays and 10:30 on Sundays throughout the year, but visitors must be willing to take part in the service.

Holy Trinity Church is an attractive Victorian building which was built on it's present site in 1875-6 to a design by Sir Robert Rowan Anderson. The church has fine stained glass windows and an unusual roof design.
In 1904, the famous Scottish architect, Charles Rennie Mackintosh designed the chancel furniture of pulpit, organ screen, communion table and choir stall. Carved in light oak and using natural plant forms interpreted in flutes and ovals in related parts of the furniture, it is described as one of the most intricate of Mackintosh's designs. Mackintosh became involved at Holy Trinity Church through his partner John Honeyman of Honeyman and Kepple Architects, to whom Mackintosh was first apprenticed in 1889.
The memorial chapel was designed by Sir Robert Lorimer in 1920.
Open on Saturdays June, July and August 10am to 4pm
Admission is free but donations to church maintenance are gratefully accepted
Please note that if there is a wedding taking place, the church will be closed for a short period.
A service of worship is held every Sunday at 11am.
From mid June to late August there is an informal service at 10am. Further information is available by phoning the Church Office on 01786 834155 .
