St Andrews on the Terrace

The present church building, built in 1923, is the second church on The Terrace site, and is registered as Category 1 on the New Zealand Historic Places Register. It is the only remaining church of the neo-baroque style in Wellington, a style that is rare internationally. The church building is a beautiful oasis of spirituality in the centre of the city. As a venue for musical performances and musical aspects of worship, St Andrew's is considered to have the best acoustics of any performance space of its type in Wellington. St Andrews considers that support of arts and public conversations about social and religious issues are core actions for our community.
