在石头城中心矗立的基督大教堂建于1870年代,由英国大学中非传教团(UMCA)在原奴隶市场遗址上建造,是东非最早的圣公会教堂之一。教堂祭坛位置特别引人注目——地面镶嵌的红色大理石圆环标记着昔日鞭打奴隶的"鞭刑树"所在。这座融合英国教堂风格与本土材料的建筑,拥有37米高的尖顶、彩绘玻璃窗和当地硬木制作的长椅。 教堂周边保留着多处历史痕迹:东非奴隶贸易展览馆详细记录了这段历史;下沉式奴隶纪念碑用锁链雕塑直观呈现被奴役者的苦难;游客还能参观当年关押奴隶的地下囚室。这里也是了解英国传教士李文斯顿和爱德华·斯蒂尔在废奴运动中作用的重要场所。作为联合国教科文组织认定的世界遗产地,该教堂建筑群以其独特的方式保存着桑给巴尔最沉重的历史记忆。

    Facade gives an impression of a big architectural building. It took time to find the church from the Stone Town center side. Narrow streets, complicated routes, tall buildings limited visual direction. But Google Maps helped.

    The cathedral in Stone Town is an absolute treasure and a must-see for anyone visiting Zanzibar. Its stunning architecture stands as a testament to the island’s rich history and cultural diversity. The beautiful stained glass, high ceilings, and intricate details inside the cathedral make it a truly peaceful and inspiring place. The history behind the cathedral is fascinating, and learning about its significance added so much depth to our visit. What made the experience even more special was the artisan shop located nearby. The shop features incredible artwork and pictures, many of which are inspired by Zanzibar’s history, culture, and natural beauty. The artists’ craftsmanship is remarkable, and it’s a fantastic opportunity to support local talent while taking home a meaningful souvenir. Overall, the combination of history, spirituality, and art makes this cathedral a place that touches your heart and leaves a lasting impression. Whether you’re exploring the historical landmarks of Stone Town or simply looking for a moment of quiet reflection, this cathedral should definitely be on your itinerary.

    Anglican church in stone town area in zanzibar is a very historical site and can be a spot for visit while one is undertaking the city tour through a local guide... The church is serene and beautifully constructed ...it also has a lot history attached to it specially while it being co located with the place where underground bunkers were constructed for keeping the slaves for further selling them under the slave trade. This very traumatic activity was done during then British colonization period of the country. There is also a small museum there depicting the history and atrocities related to slave trade era... and the boards in the museum very well narrate the tragic way of slavery and selling of slaves during that period.

    If you are interested in learning about the African slave markets and how slavery was abolished, this is a good starting place or a great place to visit to add on to what you already know about the African slave systems...but if you are sensitive about the African slavery stories, you may want to skip this place during your visit. Otherwise, I personally enjoyed the tour.very informative
