What travellers are saying
- Naina-DamaniLondon, UK1,032 contributionsIt is located in Central Wellington and it is a diverse and welcoming Catholic Church. It is a beautiful iconic architectural building.Written 14 February 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Jules060617Lausanne, Switzerland1,070 contributionsI am not a fan of the modernist exterior, which is very average. However, do stop and go inside to see the interesting interior and unusual works of art. Don't miss the wooden chapel on the left of the altar.Written 18 January 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Moira-Clare DWellington, New Zealand36 contributionsI attended an open day at St. Gerard's Monastery recently. The Redemptorist Monks and brothers left this building in 1988. Two private firms were interested in buying the building but those sales fell through for different reasons. Now it belongs to a Catholic Missionary Society and these people showed us the church, the stained glass windows and also the adjoining building. This building has a smaller chapel, dining room, kitchen and library. There is also a private lawn with a splendid outlook to the city and Wellington Harbour.Written 5 November 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Natalie1964Melbourne3,610 contributionsWe were staying on the Terrace and found this Church amongst the many buildings that line this street. It was having it's Sunday service when we arrived and therefore did not disturb the masses to go look inside. The outside is in good condition and has obviously undergone some work in recent times. Glad to see the building is being kept in great condition.Written 30 October 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- BrandyZhaoLower Hutt, Wellington, New Zealand187 contributionsWe received warm greetings by the vicar when we arrived. He kindly shared his knowledge with us about this church and its rich history. This is a very beautiful and pristine church. Being one of the oldest church in Wellington area this church was built in 1848 and it still has the original old bell. It is worth a visit.Written 22 January 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Fiver75Melbourne, Australia12,454 contributionsThis nice church was next door to my hotel on my recent trip to Wellington. Sadly for the most part it was closed. I managed a quite sneak around inside during a Sunday morning mass, and the church is beautiful, but access is not as open as some other churches in Wellington. Still, a fantastic classical church and an interesting attraction in central Wellington.Written 10 June 2012This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- ElaineMarlandWellington, New Zealand3 contributionsNot sure where Tripadvisor's photo is from, but it's not 68 Webb St! The Russian Orthodox Church in Webb St is a large square brick building, quite attractive but nothing like the photo. You can only view it from the street, it was turned into flats at least 15 years ago.Written 26 October 2013This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- TravelOftenokaySan Francisco, CA29 contributionsFound this on trip advisor during a vacation in New Zealand, and gave it a go...half way around the home from home (California Bay Area). Come to find out, there's a sister center called the SF Buddhist Center within walking distance from my job. Meditation for an hour then teaching for the next hour. Everyone was so nice. Must do for anyone who meditates.Written 27 September 2016This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- kiwiconnection2016Wellington, New Zealand84 contributionsI went with a group quite some time ago and didn't know what to expect... I did learn alot about the Jewish faith.Written 16 January 2012This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- RonWamberalSydney, Australia13,239 contributionsThis was afar more humble and down to earth , probably reflecting the nature of the Methodist church. Had seen Saint Gerard on the top of the hill and it was a very imposing structure. Saw the Wesley Church from a distance and it stood out for its more discrete approach.Written 14 December 2013This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- poohtravelNew Zealand332 contributionsFather John got me to church and that in itself was amazing. I really enjoyed the service, felt at peace and in harmony. I may even returnWritten 12 September 2012This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
