Just as St Mary Cathedral is the Number One Catholic Cathedral in Sydney, this is perhaps Melbourne's Number One Catholic Cathedral.

This is Melbourne's Number One Catholic Cathedral.

amazing spiritual richness. Outstanding architecture amazing wealth never seen so many alters in one cathedral. Definitely worth a look whether you are catholic or not.

Gorgeous gothic-transitional architecture in the heart of a modern city. Well worth the visit. Beautifully preserved history.

While there are thousands of churches and cathedrals all over the world possibly way more impressive and grand, this is a must visit on a trip to Melbourne as it stands gloriously in the heart of the city. Walking inside takes you back a few centuries and you can feel the serene heavenly essence echoed throughout its walls.

If you enjoy beautiful churches and appreciate leadlight, then you will love this amazing cathedral. It is also a very peaceful environment and memorable to visit this very iconic historical site. The cathedral is free to visit although many offer a donation while there as I did.

We took my father to the healing service on a Tuesday evening. ( He is doing amazingly well I might add since!) but it was a lovely attractive atmospheric place from an historical and architectural point of view as well as spiritual.
