Built in 1836, it is the oldest surviving church in the city. St. James Church was built in a western classical design with a Greek cross plan. Three of the arms of the cross have porticoes, while the east arm contains the altar. The dome is very similar to the dome of Florence Cathedral in Italy which was the first renaissance structure in the world. Delicate stained glass windows were added to the building in 1860. Some of the decorative elements have a Mughal influence and these are more prominent and visible in the base of the dome and also in the steps leading to the church.
