The Fort Church, Bangalore, was located within the Bangalore Fort. The church was demolished to make place for the construction of the Vani Vilas Hospital. The Government of Mysore allotted land in Chamrajpet for construction of a new church, and this is now the St. Luke's Church.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://stlukesbangalore.org/brief_history.html?PHPSESSID=eee018ebd8debea124f4c59556295e3d )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.trip2blr.com/st-lukes-church-bangalore-photo-gallery/ )〕 Early records refer to this church as the Drummer's Chapel, constructed by British soldiers after the fall of Tippu Sultan. The Fort Church, Bangalore was the first protestant church to be raised in Bangalore.〔 ==History== The Fort Church, Bangalore was amongst the 15 churches built by the Government of Madras, before 1833, when there were no special rules with regards to building churches. The Military board of the Madras Army approved the construction.〔 The Church raised in 1807 was for the use of the British troops posted in the Bangalore Fort.〔 The Fort Church, Bangalore was visited by Bishop Turner, travelling from Madras to Bangalore.〔 The Fort Church was no longer in use by 1836, when it was visited by Bishop Corrie, as there was only one chaplain for Bangalore, and he could not travel from the Bangalore Civil and Military Station to the Bangalore Fort. The church building was being used by the Madras Army for other purposes. Later in 1836, the army moved out of the Fort, and handed it over to the Government of Mysore〔 In 1857, a small garrison of the Madras Army was stationed again at the Bangalore Fort, and the Fort Church was re-opened. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fort Church, Bangalore」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
