St Paul's Church, Manuka, Anglican church in Griffith, Australia
St Paul's Church in Manuka is a church building made of red brick that blends Art Deco and Gothic Revival elements together. The structure features a long nave, a chancel area, and a bell tower positioned at the corner of Canberra Avenue.
The church was founded in 1939, emerging from a district of St John the Baptist Church in Reid, and initially operated from a corrugated iron hall in Kingston. The congregation developed from these modest beginnings into an independent parish.
The parish serves as a gathering place where different groups meet regularly and shape the community life around it. These activities connect the church to the neighborhood and create spaces where people of different ages come together.
The church is accessible during its regular service times, which happen on Sundays and weekdays throughout the week. It helps to check ahead which times suit your visit best so you can experience the building and its spaces.
The bell tower holds the only change ringing bells in the Australian Capital Territory, which were installed in 2003. This uncommon installation represents a musical tradition that is found nowhere else across the region.
