Welcome to St James’ Old Cathedral

St James’ Old Cathedral is one of Melbourne's best secrets. Over the past few years the city's oldest church, long neglected and often unnoticed, has quietly blossomed into a vibrant centre of reverent Anglican worship, faithful bible teaching, sublime music and a warm, happy, all-age community.

St James' surprises people. Many who had previously drifted away from church have found the Old Cathedral an ideal place to re-engage with God; and many visitors to our city have made us their home away from home. Why not join us?
