Description
First founded in 1838, the church’s original temporary wooden building at the west end of Collins Street made way for one of Melbourne’s most iconic buildings. Constructed between 1873 and 1874, the Gothic Revival style Scots’ Church was designed to be the most beautiful building in Australia.
