Saint Patrick’s Cathedral

The Cathedral of Saint Patrick and Saint Joseph is an heritage-listed Catholic cathedral church in Auckland CBD, situated on the corner of Federal Street and Wyndham St. It is the mother church of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Auckland and the seat of the Bishop of Auckland.

In 1841, the land was acquired by Bishop Jean-Baptiste Pompallier, the first Catholic bishop in New Zealand. A wooden chapel was constructed in 1843, replaced by a stone church in 1848, which was expanded in 1884, and finally replaced with the current cathedral in 1907. The church was designated as a cathedral in 1848, and consecrated in 1963.
