Saint Charles Borromeo Catholic Church

About Saint Charles Borromeo Catholic Church

Tucked away in Hull city centre, Saint Charles Borromeo Church is one of the city’s most fascinating heritage landmarks. This beautiful Grade I listed Catholic church dates from 1829 and stands on foundations that reach back to the late 18th century, when Hull’s Catholic community first established itself in the city after centuries of restriction.

The present church was built in 1829 and later enlarged and enriched, creating the impressive interior and historic atmosphere that visitors experience today. It is recognised not only for its architectural significance but also for the important part it has played in Hull’s religious and community history.

Still an active parish church, St Charles remains a place of worship, welcome, and quiet reflection in the heart of the city. Whether you are exploring Hull’s hidden heritage, seeking beautiful sacred architecture, or tracing the city’s Catholic past, Saint Charles Borromeo Church is a remarkable place to visit.
