St Senara's Church in Zennor is a historic parish church dedicated to Saint Senara. Dating back at least 1400 years, the current building is a mix of Norman, 13th, and 15th-century architecture. One of its unique features is the "Mermaid Chair" bench-end, depicting the Mermaid of Zennor. The churchyard holds the graves of artists Bryan Wynter and Patrick Heron. Currently undergoing bell restoration, the church remains a hub for local services and events, with Revd. Elizabeth Foot as the priest-in-charge.
