St John’s Cathedral emerges as a mixture of French and English Victorian Gothic Revival styles – and, interestingly, evokes many features of Barcelona Cathedral. All internal walls and ceilings are built of sandstone from Helidon, west of Brisbane. Sandstone from Pyrmont on the shores of Sydney Harbour was used externally for part of the first stage of construction only. The distinctive pink and lavender-toned stone used for the external walls is known as ‘Brisbane Tuff’.


St John’s Cathedral has the distinction of having the only fully stone-vaulted ceiling in Australia. After the Foundation Stone was laid in 1901, the building work proceeded in three stages: 1906—1910, 1964—1968, and 1989—2009.


The Cathedral houses the Cathedra, the Archbishop’s official seat, and also serves many other functions. It is a Parish Church for the local congregation, a gallery space, a venue for musical performance, a historic building, and a space for quiet reflection within a busy capital city. 373 Ann St, Brisbane City QLD 4000 www.stjohnscathedral.com.au
