St Paul's Church, Kandy

"The church was formally consecrated on 25th of January 1853 (Feast day of the conversion of St. Paul) by the first Bishop of Colombo, James Chapman. The foundation stone of the church was laid on 16th of March 1843 when the Bishop of Calcutta, Reginald Heber, visited Kandy In 1825 and found out church services were being held in the former King of Kandy's Royal Audience Hall. As it was first used by British officials and the British Garrison, it has been called the Garrison Church. The church houses the only pipe organ in Kandy and probably, the largest pipe organ in regular use in Sri Lanka. The original pipe organ was donated in 1874 and was in constant use until the 21st century. In 2009 it was replaced with a similar-sized pipe organ from a disused church in Bradford. The Church is built based on Neo-Gothic style and the interior is more English Victorian based style."
