Many European cities are home to beautiful cathedrals that you can’t miss during your visit, but you don’t really expect the same kind of experience in Australia. If you’re not keeping your hopes up, you’ll be pleasantly surprised while roaming through Melbourne because there are many stunning cathedrals scattered around this city.

St Paul’s Cathedral

This Neo-Gothic cathedral was built by the end of the 19th century, and it’s one of the best examples of this architectural style in Melbourne. Its exterior is defined by its twin spires and stained-glass doors, and the building is just as impressive from the inside.

St Patrick’s Cathedral

St Patrick’s Cathedral is the tallest and the largest cathedral in all of Australia, but that’s not the only thing that makes it so majestic. Just like St Paul’s Cathedral, this church features twin spires, and it’s known for its unique bells and ornate stained glass.

Sts. Peter and Paul Cathedral

If you want to explore different styles of architecture while in Melbourne, make sure to check out this Ukrainian catholic cathedral. It consists of two joint sections of differing styles, adding to the architectural diversity and uniqueness of this bluestone building.
