St Brigids Catholic Church, Rosewood

The wooden church features three flush gables, stained glass windows, and a vaulted ceiling with pressed metal panels painted in blue shades.

Constructed in 1909 under Reverend Andrew Horan's design, the church replaced an earlier timber structure where services were held at local residences.

The stained glass windows, created by RS Exton of Brisbane, depict saints alongside images of local agricultural produce, reflecting regional identity.

The church structure requires extensive repairs estimated at 3 million dollars to address foundation issues and restore structural stability.

Local residents voluntarily provided labor and materials during construction, with an original altar table from early settler homes still present inside.
