St Brigid's Church, Red Hill

St Brigid's Church is a Catholic place of worship in Brisbane's Red Hill suburb, built with brick and featuring gothic architectural details. The building displays pointed arches and stained glass windows distributed throughout its structure.

The foundation stone was laid in 1912 and construction finished in 1914, built by Thomas Keenan for the expanding community. The project took place during a period when the Catholic population in Brisbane was growing significantly.

Named after Saint Brigid of Kildare, the church reflects the Irish Catholic community that formed in Brisbane. Its presence in the neighborhood speaks to the religious identity that shaped this area's development.

The church holds regular masses and religious services as part of the Jubilee Catholic Parish serving western Brisbane. The elevated location offers good visibility and makes it easy to spot from different parts of the neighborhood.

The church is oriented north to south, creating a direct visual line with George Street. This alignment makes it recognizable from many vantage points across Brisbane.
