St Saviour's Cathedral, Goulburn, Anglican cathedral in Goulburn, Australia.
St Saviour's Cathedral is an Anglican cathedral in Goulburn featuring pointed arches, ribbed vaults, and flying buttresses in the Gothic Revival style. The structure was built from local sandstone sourced from nearby quarries and showcases detailed stonework throughout its walls and towers.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1874 following architect Edmund Blacket's design, succeeding an earlier brick church built in 1840. The project reached completion in 1884 after a decade of careful building work.
The cathedral serves as the spiritual center for the local Anglican community and draws visitors seeking a space for reflection and worship. The building remains an active gathering place where the values and traditions of the congregation are expressed through daily use and regular services.
The grounds are open to visitors interested in exploring the architecture and joining guided tours when available. Parking facilities nearby make it convenient to reach the building.
The bell tower contains twelve bells, making it the only regional installation with a complete set of this size in the Southern Hemisphere. This rare collection of bells gives the cathedral a distinctive acoustic character.
