About About the place

Anderson Church, originally built in 1845, is a historic church located in the Parry's Corner area of Chennai. While modest in size, it is notable for its distinctive artwork, which blends Christian iconography with Indian artistic styles, particularly those associated with Hinduism. Visitors appreciate the bold and colorful depictions of Jesus and biblical scenes. The church remains an active place of worship, and a respectful demeanor is expected. Its location offers convenient access to other central Chennai attractions, and the front porch provides a vantage point for photographing the Madras High Court.
