This is a lovely church just up the street from the lovely Duxton Hotel. It has just been refurbished, with a new statue of Saint George out the front, definatly worth visiting.

Found the Cathedral by accident while walking through the city. Stepping inside it is hard to not be in awe of the beautiful stained glass and masonry work. Perth having so few historical buildings, this one was rich with history and character without being over the top. You are free to look around and enjoy this beautiful landmark, and you... More

The Cathedral is open to the public and has all the usual services that all can attend but it is the sheer height and inticity of details that sets this Cathedral apart from the rest.

There aren't many historical buildings in Perth, but this is one that has meaning and isn't just a glass blob, or towering piece of no importance modernism. You don't have to be religiously inclined to appreciate the cathedral.

Delighted to find a cathedral in Perth that is lovely. The lead lights and glass work is beautiful. The artwork out the front is stunning. The choir is worth sitting back and listening to as well. Best of all it's right in the middle of town.

It's really a beautiful cathedral! When I visited there nearly no tourists. So I can enjoy the quiet place and take some pictures.

Was passing the Cathedral at 7:30am and popped in quickly. Was invited to morning prayer that lasted 15 minutes. What a lovely opportunity to connect and reflect before the day begins. I'm surprised there was no one else doing morning prayer and taking the opportunity before work. Its a beautiful Cathedral.

A beautiful place of quietness in the city to contemplate the bigger picture. Beautiful design and love the new sculpture.
