Beautiful Galle Fort....with a lot of Dutch 🇱🇺 memories...church...amazing place....i love Sri Lanka 👍
Very ancient Church but, well preserved-to date you can still see the carvings on the floor. They are not blurred or wearied. So much clear. Not a big church but feels the holiness inside.
One of the finest and most traditional Tourist attractions in Galle which is worth to visit and admire is the Galle Fort. The Dutch Reformed Church is the ancient building located in the premises of the fort. The building’s date goes back the 18th century during the Dutch period.
A walk through the Fort ground along with the humble caretaker, immersing in his never-ending fancy stories will take you back to the era whence it was built. The Church is also known as Groot Kert.
Location: Church Street, Galle fort
Highlights: Many tombstones dating back to the 17th can be observed; this church also is a Cruciform with shorter transepts separated by two arches. The floor is marked with gravestones. The beautiful pulpit made from Malaysian wood, calamander is a beautiful sight and near to the pulpit is the memorial of De Ly Family.
Timings: 9 am to 5 Pm
Best Time to visit: The best month to visit this place in February
This was one of my first stops at Galle Fort. It's an impressive structure with several stained glass windows. There was a small collection of parishioners outside when I visited, but I was free to walk through the church and grounds. For a quick visit, plan to spend 15 minutes, maybe an hour if you get really engaged.
Nice and calm church. On Sundays, only opened for worship services. We came in the middle of the service and it was a normal church for European scales.
