Cathedral Open for Worship

In the heart of Hobart, a beautiful neo-gothic building dedicated to the service of God...

Saint David's Cathedral is the church of the Bishop of Tasmania's episcopal chair (cathedra) and celebrates the good news of Jesus Christ to the diocese, the city and the state.

Built between 1868 and 1936 Saint David's is widely regarded as the finest example outside England of the work of the leading Victorian architect, George F. Bodley.

The Cathedral is open daily as a sanctuary and oasis both for people who frequent the inner city on a daily basis and for many visitors from overseas and interstate.
