The Wellington Cathedral of St Paul (also called St Paul's Cathedral or Wellington Cathedral) is an Anglican church in the city of Wellington, New Zealand. It is the mother church of the Diocese of Wellington and the cathedral of the Bishop of Wellington. Situated in Thorndon, the main entrance to the cathedral is on Hill Street, at its junction with Molesworth Street; it is located close to the parliament precinct. The building was designed in the 1930s by New Zealand architect Cecil Wood. Construction began in 1954, and was completed in 1998. It was constructed in reinforced concrete due to the effects of the 1931 Napier earthquake making other choices impractical. The church was initially envisioned as a war memorial cathedral, and it was designed on a monumental scale. Archbishop of New Zealand Reginald Herbert Owen declared in 1958: "Every nation needs in its capital city a great church to express its belief in the things of the spirit". The building began to be used as an Anglican cathedral in 1964 (replacing Old St Paul's), and was consecrated in 2001.

Beautiful building Worth a visit, free entrance, located in the heart of the city

Superb concert by NZ Youth Choir. Great acoustics. Beautifully maintained Cathedral. Significant ANZAC memorial wall.

Fantastic New Auto Door entrance

Great to visit this again.a good service I showed a 1st time person around.

A place of calm in the middle of the city. Thursday evensong at 5.30pm is sung by the best children's choir I have heard in a long time and is a lovely way to finish off a day in the city.

called St Paul's Cathedral or Wellington Cathedral. When you enterd will find lovely lady and she will tell you all the stories about this an Anglican church.

Several of us were there to be ordained. The Cathedral team - clergy, choir, vergers etc were so welcoming and helpful. Nothing seemed to be too hard for them to answer. My friends who needed parking got it, the afternoon tea was plentiful and I am assured by my friends was yummy. Please note: this was a special event.

Beautiful cathedral in the city center, do visit.

Wonderful NZ Symphony Orchestra concert.

Marsden carol service - beautiful choir, service and experience in a very special spiritual place

Great atmosphere, love this church and love the lord.

This is a lovely place belying the ugly stalinist exterior. It is surprisingly light, airy and lovely inside, a holy place.

Peaceful, lovely to sit and listen to the organ being played
