About St. Stephen's Church

St. Stephen's Church is one of the oldest churches in the Nilgiris, built in the 1820s in the Gothic style. Its tall spire, arched windows and quiet stone grounds make it a calm stop in the middle of town.

The church sits on a hillock above the Ooty lake area and is a popular place for photographs.
