"Trinity Episcopal Church is the oldest permanent Protestant church in San Jose. Constructed by John W. Hammond, it is one of the finest examples of carpenter Gothic religious architecture in the western United States. The interior of the church is very ornately carved redwood, with ornamented beams and trusses, and an exceptional multi-Gothic arched chancel. Other features include beautiful stained glass windows crafted by the New York firm of Doremus, and the tower chimes which date from the 1860's."
