St Paul’s Cathedral

St Paul’s Cathedral is a striking Anglican church that anchors Melbourne’s busiest intersection, standing directly opposite Federation Square and just across from the iconic Flinders Street Station. Built between 1880 and 1931 in the neo-Gothic style, the cathedral is one of the city’s most recognisable landmarks and remains Victoria’s most visited place of worship.

Light is also brought into the space through the stained glass processional doors designed by Janusz Kuzbicki.
