Religious sites in Adelaide

Adelaide's Sacred Sites

Adelaide’s reputation as the 'City of Churches' is anchored by these historic landmarks. The collection includes the neo-Gothic St Peter’s Cathedral, established in 1869, and the Victorian-style St Francis Xavier Cathedral. Many sites, such as Holy Trinity—the city's oldest church founded in 1836—and the distinctive North Adelaide Baptist Church, highlight diverse architectural styles from the mid-19th to early 20th centuries. These venues serve as both active places of worship and significant examples of South Australia’s colonial and religious heritage.
