Consecrated in 1686 by Bishop Henry Compton (after whom Old Compton St is named) the original church was designed by William Talman, who worked under Sir Christopher Wren.

The church family here at St Anne's is privileged to be able to meet in this remarkable Grade I listed building. Commissioned during the reign of Queen Anne as part of the Fifty New Churches Act (1711), it was built between 1714-1727, and was consecrated in 1730. The church is named after Queen Anne, who initiated the scheme and raised money for it by imposing a tax on coal coming up the River Thames. The church was designed by Nicholas Hawksmoor, who was Sir Christopher Wren's assistant.

St Anne's Cathedral, built between 1899 and 1904, is the Anglican cathedral (Church of Ireland) in Belfast. The church was built in a Romanesque Revival style by the architect Sir Thomas Drew. The nave was originally built on the site of the former parish church of St Anne.

St Anne's Chapel in Malbork Castle was the burial chapel of the great Teutonic masters. Desecrated during the Swedish Wars in the 17th century, the chapel was eventually given to the Jesuit order and was used as their burial place in the 18th century. After 1780 the chapel was taken over by the parish clergy and between 1821 and 1823 it was renovated and restored. The building was again completely revitalised and the interior was altered by Conrad Steinbrecht in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In 1945, during the fighting for the castle, the vault of the chapel collapsed after being hit by artillery fire from the Red Army.

St Anne's Church in its present form owes much to a restoration by George Gilbert Scott, a renowned Victorian building architect. This renovation was completed in 1850. During the Second World War, when the town was under German occupation and all its citizens had left the town, the church was used as a shop, and its premises were damaged. After the war, the church underwent a major restoration, completed in 1953.
