Saint Christopher's Cathedral

This cathedral boasts a distinctive structure enhanced by striking visual artwork. The captivating stained-glass windows, with their vibrant hues contrasting against the architectural grandeur, are a particular highlight for me. It's a serene and inspiring spot for both worship and exploration. Although the winter chill can linger despite the heating, the Sunday Mass at 11 am draws a considerable crowd of locals and visitors. Typically officiated by either the archbishop or by the Cathedral's Administrator, their homilies attract attendees from near and far. On the church grounds, adjacent to Marian Place along Canberra Avenue, stands the remarkable statue of Saint Christopher, crafted by the talented Croatian sculptor Ante Dabro. For those visiting Canberra, this place is a true gem not to be missed. Seize the opportunity to offer a prayer for your journey or simply revel in the exquisite windows, each with its own captivating tale to tell.
