Ann Street Presbyterian Church, Presbyterian church building in Brisbane, Australia
Ann Street Presbyterian Church is a stone church building in Brisbane with steep gabled roofs, tall pointed windows, and a large rose window facing the street. The interior has a sloping floor that descends toward the communion table, with timber arches running across the ceiling.
The original stone building was constructed in 1858 and was severely damaged by fire in 1871. It was rebuilt and reopened in 1873, with additional facilities like a parish hall added much later in 1936.
The name comes from the street where it stands, which was named after early settlers in the area. Visitors can experience Presbyterian worship traditions that continue to connect the community to practices brought by Scottish immigrants.
The church is located in Brisbane City center and is easily accessible. Visitors should check opening times in advance since regular services are held and access may be limited during worship.
The interior features diagonal timber boarding on the floor that creates a distinctive pattern. This uncommon design detail gives the worship space a warm character that visitors notice when they step inside.
