St Paul's Cathedral
St Paul’s Cathedral is an Anglican church located prominently on Melbourne's busiest intersection opposite Federation Square. Built between 1880 and 1931, the neo-Gothic building is a Melbourne landmark and Victoria’s most visited sacred place, with over 400,000 visitors a year.
Constructed in sandstone, the cathedral’s architecture is described as Gothic transitional, combining Early English and Decorative Gothic styles and was designed by William Butterfield. Highlights include the fine polychromatic brickwork, beautifully patterned floor tiles and mosaics, banded stonework, fine timbered roof and tiled dado walls.
Music plays an integral part of worship at St Paul's, and the repertoire of Anglican church music can be heard during services. The church also holds a lunchtime concert series on Wednesdays at 1pm. These half-hour recitals provide fine music and space for contemplation.
The cathedral gift shop stocks a wide range of gifts, handcrafts, devotional items and souvenirs.
