Sacred Heart Cathedral - Further Information

Sacred Heart Cathedral is the largest cathedral in Victoria outside Melbourne and reputedly the last Early Gothic style cathedral built in the world. It was designed by the architect W Tappin in 1887 and work commenced in 1896 but it wasn't completed until the bell was finally added in 2003!

The building is made of Barrabol freestone. Australian blackwood was used to build the pews and Sicilian marble was used for the sanctuary walls. The 21-metre stained-glass window on the western wall was made in Birmingham. The tallest spire stands at 86 metres with a 3-tonne, 7-metre bronze cross at its apex. The eagle lectern was donated by George Lansell.
