This Church has some amazing architecture and it was just unfortunate that we were too early for it be opened to the public. I would have love to look inside for my self but I tried to take in as much as I could from all around this almost medieval style building... loved it.

Amazing church as we enjoyed being present at a family wedding a few weeks ago before lock down 😅👍

What a wonderful church with amazing acoustics. It has both upstairs and downstairs seating. Downstairs has wooden pews with foam squabs for a little bit of comfort. There are pull down wooden steps in front of the seats for kneeling on in prayer - should you wish to kneel.
I found the temperature quite cold so if you are there on a cool day you will need to wrap up warm.
There is a pipe organ and grand piano

One of the many churches in Dunedin. This was the first one we came across as we were heading to the Rob Roy Dairy down the road.
The Church is quite ornate and the spire quite tall. They also had white flags against family violence along the fence when we were there.
We just looked around the outside to take photos and didn't go inside.

The Rev Dunstan was the first minister of this church, and made a significant impact in the establishment of Dunedin.
The church itself is a beautiful building on the corner of George and Pitt Streets, and has a very nice stained glass window behind the pulpit. The interior doesn't quite match the grandeur of the exterior, but has all the original features. Although the service is traditional Presbyterian, the congregation is friendly and quite a mix of different ages and ethnicities. While I'm not a dyed-on-in-the-wool traditionalist, I appreciated the reverence given to communion and would certainly attend a service there again.

The building itself is iconic to Dunedin and has great architecture. I attended a service here once because I was invited by a friend. It was very different to what I am used to.

Refer to Wikipedia: Knox Church is a notable building in Dunedin, New Zealand. It houses the city's second Presbyterian congregation and is the city's largest church of any denomination.
It was designed by Robert Lawson in the 13th century Gothic style and construction began in 1872. It is the second building for the congregation. The first, completed in 1860, was the second Presbyterian church in the settlement. It was a large wooden structure sited in Great King Street, close to the University of Otago Faculty of Dentistry building.
Constructed of bluestone from quarries close to the Water of Leith, and with Oamaru stone dressings and spire, its plan forms a Latin cross, with a nave 30 metres in length and 22 metres in average width. The spire rises to a height of 51 metres.

If you like architecture like I do, you'll enjoy Knows church - one of the most beautiful in Dunedin

Beautiful old church. Nice acoustics too for a small musical concert.
