A Beautiful small Historic Church in the First Capitol of New Zealand. I was there for the memorial service for a dear friend who had been deeply involved with the Church for 20 years. It was a beautiful day and the sun shone through the windows. The atmosphere was serene and comforting. It is one of the main attractions of Russell and delightful in its peace and simplicity.
WOW such a beautiful church & to think it's the oldest in NZ!!!! A must visit when in Bay of Islands, Russell has so much beauty & history I really loved walking here from Ferry & seeing the beautiful windows, alter cushions, flowers & graves was very mind blowing.
I visited this spot during my Northland trip. It was good to see the first church of New Zealand. There was no one inside and the doors were open to everyone. There is a $2 donation box which could be used to donate $2 that goes towards various maintenances. There were many graves dating back to the 1800s. This place talks a lot about history. Would highly recommend! Cheers
First catholic church of NZ. Survived the war of 1845 to be one of the only two structures not burnt to the ground.
Stayed in Kororareka Russell . Visited Christ Church which has some great history.
Beautiful church with a lot of history. Nice for a short visit. Didn’t feel out of place on a Sunday, despite my Baptist background. Though, I was disappointed that I was the only attendee under 60 years of age.
Have adored my Christ Church ornament for over 30 years. Very special to finally visit. It was amazing to see the magnificent tapestry cushions on each pew, having seen them on television in the past. Such a special church.
The New Zealand's oldest church, you'll see the link with and influences of the maritime life and death everywhere. A real harbor church.
Wonderful service, a friendly parish with lots of history.
As beautiful as it should be, this was on my bucket list for a while. Peaceful church with open doors. The first ever church in New Zealand as recorded.
