This church with beautiful stained glass windows is one of the oldest churches in Australia, celebrating 175 years of existence as a cathedral in 2017.
From their webpage:
"Visit any time to enjoy the cathedral. It is a quiet place in the heart of Hobart where you can connect with God, contemplate, meditate, pray or just walk around and look. The Cathedral, at the corner of Murray St and Macquarie St is open every day.
The building sits on the Corner of Macquarie and Murray Street and forms one quadrant of the finest Georgian streetscape in Australia. On the pinnacles of each gable is a quatrefoil, repeated on the extremities of the large crucifix of the rood screen which dominates the sanctuary. The quatrefoil is reminiscent of the four points of the compass and reminds us that the Cathedral’s mission is a universal mission bringing the love of God in Christ to Hobart and far beyond."
