History
It traces its origin back to Christian Frederick Schwartz, the first German missionary, supported by the Society for the Promotion of Christian Knowledge (S.P.C.K) in South India. He built a small school near the Rock Fort in Tiruchirappalli in 1762. It was renamed after Reginald Heber, the Lord Bishop of Calcutta, who came to Tiruchirappalli in 1826 and died on his way to Travancore. The Heber Memorial School became a full-fledged high school in 1864. In 1873 the School was raised to a Second Grade College and in 1882 it became a First Grade College. It was then known as S.P.G College. It was the first college to be established in Tiruchirappalli. It was merged with Madras Christian College (MCC), Tambaram, in 1934 as recommended by the Lindsay Commission on Christian Higher Education in India. It was revived like a phoenix on 24 June 1966.
