The Undead Parish is a location in Dark Souls. It is a small area containing both the new and the old Undead Church, along with various other buildings.
Adjacent locations
- Undead Burg
- Darkroot Garden
- Firelink Shrine - An elevator becomes operational after it is activated from the Parish.
- Sen's Fortress - Opens after the player has rung both Bells of Awakening.
Bonfires
There are two Bonfires in the Undead Parish area, both of which are warping points.
- Sunlight Altar Warping Point - After the Taurus Demon, across the bridge and beyond the threshold that is guarded by the Hellkite Dragon.
- Undead Parish Warping Point - Beyond the Berenike Knight, in the structure across the narrow bridge leading from the Undead Parish Church. It is found in the old Undead Church above Andre the Blacksmith.
Covenant
- Warrior of Sunlight - Can be joined either by praying at the Sunlight Altar or talking to Solaire once he arrives at said altar.

Trivia
- The portcullis behind the Fang Boar is closed when the player approaches too close to it, which causes the Armored Zombie closest to it to rush behind it and pull the lever. As such, it can be prevented from closing by aggroing this Armored Zombie with a ranged attack, thus preventing it from being there to close the gate.
