Quetta Memorial Precinct, Heritage memorial precinct in Thursday Island, Queensland, Australia
The Quetta Memorial Precinct contains All Souls and St Bartholomew's Cathedral Church, the Bishop's House, and the Church Hall on Douglas Street.
The precinct was established in the 1890s following the RMS Quetta shipwreck tragedy of 1890, which claimed 134 lives near Thursday Island.
The Anglican cathedral functions as a central point for religious ceremonies and maintains records of maritime history through its memorial collections.
The Queensland Heritage Register listed site includes multiple structures built between 1891 and 1965, offering visitors access to historical Anglican architecture.
The Bishop's House served as a theological training center for clergy members who ministered across northern Australia during the early settlement period.
