The building, located on the corner of Star Street and Metal Street, is a Grade I Listed building.[1] History and architectureThe first church in this locality was established in 1857 in a converted barn and was known as Splott Chapel and as Christ Church. In 1874 this was replaced by a second-hand building made of iron. The population was growing rapidly and this building soon became inadequate.[2] By 1881 the parish had raised £5000 to build a new church.[2] Lord Tredegar donated the land and laid the foundation stone of the new church in April 1882.[3] The new church was designed by architect George Frederick Bodley,[2] part of architectural partnership Bodley & Garner. It was built between 1881 and 1884. Newman describes the church as "tall, spacious and elegant" and of "widespread influence locally".[5] Among other features of note, high on the south wall of the chancel of St. German's is a particularly finely carved and painted organ case – recently painstakingly restored to its former glory – which was given to the new church by the Rev. Francis Edward Nugee, who spent most of the 1880s as a young curate in the parish of Roath under the Rev. Charles Smythies, who was vicar of Roath until 1883; Smythies went on to become Bishop of British Central Africa (later renamed Nyasaland, now Malawi) and Nugee later married his half-sister, Edith Alston.[6] In addition to the church there is a school and clergy house next door, built contemporaneously by the same architects.[5] St German's church was consecrated in March 1886 and the new parish of St German was created in the same month.[3] In the mediaThe BBC Radio 4 programme The Daily Service has been broadcast from St German's on several occasions.[7][8][9] References1. ^{{Citation | url = http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/wa-13806-church-of-st-german-of-auxerre-adamsdown | title = Church of St German of Auxerre., Adamsdown | accessdate = 2013-06-09| publisher = britishlistedbuildings.co.uk}} 2. ^1 Jean Rose, The Church of St German, Roath, Cardiff: A Guide for Visitors, St German's Church (2010), pp. 1–2 3. ^1 2 History of St German's Church, St German with St Saviour website.
