Church Street, or Lebuh Gereja, is one of the streets within the core zone of the George Town Unesco World Heritage Site. Located within the Commercial District of 19th century George Town, it is one of the early streets to be laid in the town, and has appeared in the Popham Map of 1798.
The name Church Street was derived from the Catholic Missionary Church which was established by Father Arnold Garnault, who arrived with a group of Roman Catholics from Kuala Kedah to settle in Penang. They were invited over by Captain Francis Light himself. Following the clearing of land within the new settlement, the Catholics built their makeshift attap church on the plot bordered by Church Street, Bishop Street, China Street and Pitt Street. The church was only given the name Church of the Assumption when Father Garnault returned to Penang on 15 August 1787, as Bishop Garnault on the Feast of the Assumption, following his Episcopal ordination in Pondicherry, India.
