The Old St. Paul's Cathedral in Wellington is widely regarded as one of New Zealand's most important heritage monuments.


In the heart of Wellington, New Zealand's capital city, Old St. Paul's (previously St. Paul's Pro-Cathedral) is a historic site, a city landmark (a tourist attraction), and a wedding and event venue. From 1866 until 1964, the edifice operated as both the parish church of Thorndon and the pro-cathedral (provisional cathedral) of the Diocese of Wellington of the Anglican Church. It is located at 34 Mulgrave Street, Thorndon, next to Parliament Buildings, and represents 19th-century Gothic Revival architecture adapted to colonial conditions and materials.


It's made of natural New Zealand woods and features gorgeous stained-glass windows. With exposed curved rimu trusses and kauri roof sarking, the interior has been compared to the upturned hull of an Elizabethan galleon.
