Review & Rating
My favorite church in Boston area. Been here multiple times Sunday morning for the prays, and felt calm and good. Bought books in its stores and were joy to read. Brought friends here to visit as well.
Beautiful church, great Episcopalian service, but most impressively wonderful music. The choir tackles demanding pieces even during the summer. Richard Webster is just sublime as the organist (and choir director) fully exploiting the capabilities of the organ with proper improvised stylistic and tonal transitions throughout the service. Highly recommended.
Beautiful church! Well worth the admission to see the interior. Architectural wonder.
This landmark church could easily get by on its breathtaking architecture and amazing choir. However, the priests are gifted orators, the community is very warm and welcoming (find a group within the church community--800+ members is too big to know everyone), and it is the perfect combination of liturgically intensive and affirming and welcoming to all. This is not a generic church that simply welcomes everyone and stands for nothing. Attendees will be challenged personally and social from the pulpit with an often strong social gospel. This is a vibrant Christ-centered shining jewel in the heart of Boston!
Great landmark to visit great for taking pictures.if your in Boston to visit and visit landmark's this is one you want to see
Situated near Back bay, Trinity Church has Romanesque style architecture. Has huge organ inside. Offers tours of the church and there are five services on Sundays . Must visit while around the back bay area in Boston
A beautiful old church. We went for the christmas mass. The choir is amazing.
Trinity Church is a Episcopal church and national landmark that makes for a very interesting place to see at Copley Square. Opening Hours for touring are 9-4.45pm (Monday - Saturday) and 11.15-5.45pm (Sundays). Founded in 1733, what makes Trinity Church most impressive is the unique, Richardson Romanesque architectural style, which first made its mark with the construction of this church building (1872-1877). The exterior of Trinity Church has a whimsical architecture quality to it, making use of rough stone, heavy arches, religious figures and a polychromy colour coordination. There are Romanesque, Victorian, Gothic and perhaps even fairytale like characteristics that make for a visually unique viewing of this church. The architecture is peculiar if nothing else. The interior of the church is also impressive featuring beautiful glass stained windows, delicate wood carving pulpit and seating areas, attractive wall murals and gold gilded wall space behind the alter. Unfortunately, we found the lighting to be quite dim within the church, which makes it somewhat difficult to shoot with your camera. It was still very nice to see the interior of Trinity Church, even with the high entry fee. In the end, not sure we would pay again to go into Trinity Church but we would certainly stop by Copley Square again to enjoy the interesting exterior appearance of the building. It is worth a look-see from the outside if you plan to be near Copley Square during your visit to Boston. Those who enjoy church visits will probably want to include this on your sightseeing schedule.
What can I say? Magnificent space. Welcoming community. And at christmastime? The musical service was magical.
One of best Christmas experiences ever!!! Choir was excellent and service outstanding!!! Thankful for the beautiful Christmas eve I have had after this visit.
