The Tour will explain the varying stages of the Catholic Church’s growth in Western Australia commencing at the Pro-Cathedral at 18 Victoria Avenue which is the oldest Church in the CBD and second oldest public building in the CBD, which still operates as a church. Visitors will see the Cathedral’s architectural and artistic developments spanning three centuries – from its relatively humble beginnings in 1865 to the stunning 21st Century building we see today. A highlight of every Tour is a visit to the Cathedral Crypt.
St Mary’s Cathedral is the mother church of the Catholic Archdiocese of Perth – the seat of the Catholic Archbishop of Perth.
Experience for yourself the stunning beauty of St Mary’s Cathedral – the State’s largest church building and an icon of the City of Perth.
