Really nice and beatifull church in the middle of Porto. The people are really friendly. The building is surrounded by a high wall and vegetation which creates a fantastic atmosphere. It has a little beautiful building in the back for gatherings and events.

Everyone is very friendly. A lovely atmosphere — the liturgy is very accessible. There is a high wall surrounding the church, which makes it a little difficult to find — look for the gate. Services are at 11.00am Thursday and Sunday.

Great Hymns. Great service. Friendly people. Tea and biscuits after church service at back of church.

Local histórico no centro do Porto e desconhecido para a maior parte dos portuenses. Agora muito mais acessível ao público.

Visita de estudo e concerto musical

Muito bonita. Vale a pena visitar.

A igreja anglicana de St. James celebrou 200 anos em 2015, mas desde 1671 que a comunidade anglicana marca presença na cidade do Porto. Desde 1788 que o seu cemitério acolhe a comunidade inglesa, sendo o único cemitério protestante no norte de Portugal.

Fui para uma soiré musical. Foi espetacular.

Um local de culto, da comunidade inglesa no Porto, com 100 anos de existência, lindíssima igreja, o cemitério é curioso, e também merece uma visita, com todos o respeito,obviamente.

Amazing place of peace and hospitality. Very welcoming english speaking community. For me it became 'my home' during my stay in the city. Open usually just around the time of service (regularly Thursdays and Sundays 11am).

St James Anglican Church Porto. Visitors wishing to see St. James' Church can find it in the Largo da Maternidade, close to the maternity hospital. The Chaplaincy of Oporto was founded in 1671, when the Rev John Brawlerd, a priest of the Church of England, was employed by the British merchants of Oporto to provide religious services for the British community and to provide for the education of their children. This old church and even older cemetery are well worth a visit. Among the interesting objects and sites to see are the burial urn of Consul Whitehead, the tombstones for Baron James Forrester's family, and the 2nd World War graves of the 11 British and Canadian airmen whose planes were downed in accidents off the Portuguese coast. (Though Barron Forrester is commemorated in the cemetery, his remains do not lie there, as he was drowned in the River Douro and his body never found). A war memorial cross stands in a small garden in front of the church and records the names of members of the British community of Oporto who lost their lives in the two great wars of the 20th century. The first part of the annual Remembrance Day takes place in front of this memorial.
