Built in 18th century, Armenian Church is one of the the oldest extant churches in
Kolkata. The interior of the church is made of marble. The altar has a cross, the gospels and 12 candlesticks symbolizing Christ and his Apostles. There is a staircase leading to an overhead gallery whose walls are full of mural tablets. Three oil paintings - 'The Holy Trinity', 'The Last Supper' and 'The Enshrouding of Our Lord' - by the English artist A E Harris also adorn the altar. Remains of the Armenian cemetery can be seen in the premises.
Armenian Church is at the north-west corner of Barabazaar, near Howrah Bridge in Kolkata.
