Holy Trinity Church, Mackay, Anglican church in Gordon Street, Mackay, Australia.
Holy Trinity Church is an Anglican place of worship with Romanesque, Spanish Mission, and Mediterranean architectural details built from masonry in 1926. The building sits prominently on Gordon Street and shows clear stone construction techniques combined with design elements from multiple traditions.
The current building is the third church erected on this site, following the collapse of the first in 1878 and destruction of the second by cyclone in 1918. Each rebuilding reflects the community's commitment to maintaining this place of worship through difficult times.
The Warriors' Chapel contains stained glass windows depicting saints and serves as a memorial to those from Mackay who died in World War I. Visitors can see how this religious space holds personal meaning for the local community through its commemorative art.
The building is easily visible from the public street and visitors can appreciate its exterior design and stonework from Gordon Street. Contact the church office for information about visiting times or attending services to ensure you arrive when the building is open.
A Whitehouse Bros organ installed in 1956 with two manuals and ten speaking stops was updated in 2015 and contributes to the acoustic character of worship inside. Few visitors notice this mechanical instrument hidden within the walls, even though it shapes the sound of services.
