St Josephs Cathedral, Rockhampton, Gothic Revival cathedral in Allenstown, Rockhampton, Australia.
The cathedral exhibits pointed arches, Italian marble floors, and detailed stained glass windows depicting New Testament scenes from John Hardman and Son of England.
Construction began in 1894 under Bishop Cani's direction, with the foundation stone laid in 1895 and the official opening ceremony held in October 1899.
The cathedral functions as the central place of worship for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Rockhampton, established following the first Catholic service in 1862.
Located at 170 William Street, the cathedral welcomes visitors to explore its architectural features through guided tours of the heritage-listed structure.
The building's sandstone blocks originated from Stanwell Quarry, which Bishop Cani personally owned during the construction period.
