背景 Background

座堂位於花園道,一八四七年三月十一日由時任港督戴維斯爵士奠基,一八四九年落成,是香港現存最古老的西式基督教教堂,最初供駐港英軍及聖公會使用。一八七三年擴建後呈十字形平面,一九一八年至一九二一年在旁增建一座副堂。日治時期一度被改作日軍會所,建築受損,戰後重開並修復。座堂以灰磚及石材建成,屬早期英式及裝飾哥德式風格,有尖拱窗、肋線及幾何窗花,塔樓及兩側角塔設城垛式女兒牆,反映其軍用教堂背景。一九九六年列為法定古蹟。

The foundation stone of St. John's Cathedral on Garden Road was laid by Governor Sir John Davis on 11 March 1847, and the building was completed in 1849, making it the oldest surviving Western Christian church in Hong Kong. Intended partly for the British garrison and the Anglican church, it was extended in 1873 into a cruciform plan. During the Japanese Occupation it was turned into a Japanese clubhouse and damaged, then reopened and restored after the war. Built of grey brick and stone in Early English and Decorated Gothic style, it has lancet windows, ribbed lines and geometric tracery, with a crenellated parapet reflecting its military role. Declared a monument in 1996.
