As an organization has existed since 1728. The present building was erected in 1872, after fire had destroyed its predecessor on Summer St. It is of French Romanesque style, and is one of the most imposing church buildings in the city. The beautiful mural decorations are by John LaFarge. Philips Brooks was rector of Trinity for twenty-two years before he was made bishop of Massachusetts. His statue by St. Gaudens adorns the lawn.
