“Preserving for Eternity”
The Chapel of Trinity College Kandy has inspired the Trinity community since 1922. After decades of continuous exposure, the chapel now requires significant restoration to preserve its structural integrity and historical value.
With age, exposure to the prevalent humidity and dampness in the region, the air which contains aerosol pollutants, and the structural deterioration of the edifice, there has been a slow but inexorable deterioration of the once vibrant edifice and the murals. Thus, Trinity College Chapel is critically in need of a comprehensive restoration and conservation effort to preserve these murals, along with the 100-year-old Chapel itself, for future generations. The study conducted by a committee of experts (architects, structural engineer, resident engineer, and the premises manager) has further emphasized the need for urgent and professional intervention.
The restoration will ensure the chapel continues to serve as a place for reflection, assembly, and spiritual growth for future generations of Trinitians and others, preserving it for eternity.
