St. Michael's Cathedral & Rectory, Anglican cathedral in Wollongong, Australia
The cathedral stands on Church Street with a symmetrical design and Gothic Revival architecture created by Edmund Blacket between 1858 and 1859.
Following Charles Throsby Smith's settlement in 1822, Major Thomas Mitchell surveyed the area in 1834, designating land for the Church of England.
The cathedral maintains regular worship services, religious ceremonies, and educational programs that connect different generations of the Anglican community in Wollongong.
The cathedral opens its doors daily, offering guided tours of the main building, rectory, and surrounding grounds listed in the State Heritage Register.
The cathedral served as a central support point during the Mount Kembla mine explosion of 1902, providing assistance to affected families.
