St. Patrick's Catholic Church, Gympie. Queensland.

Gympie is a regional town in the Wide Bay-Burnett region of Queensland, Australia. It is about 160 kilometres north of the state capital, Brisbane. The city lies on the Mary River, which floods the town periodically. Situated on a hill is the Catholic Church so when we visited last week I took the opportunity to take photos.  I don't know when the church was built, but I presume it's in the 1900's.

      That's interesting. I expect many of our churches are like European ones

    It could use a paint job on the outside, but it looks really good on the inside

      You are correct Adam, it's Brick so a scrub would be good.

    Wonderful blue sky showing off the exterior of the church - I like the roundel window very much.
